Shake Table Testing of Two Historical Masonry Structures for Estimation of Their Seismic Stability

Shake table testing of scaled models of two historical masonry structures revealed critical insights into their seismic stability, failure mechanisms, and weak points. The study focused on the Old Bridge in Mostar and the ancient Protiron structure in Split, providing essential data on their seismic response, including accelerations, displacements, and strains, which were used to verify analytical models. These findings are crucial for designing health monitoring systems for these heritage structures, ensuring their preservation in seismically active regions.
