Earthquake Engineering

Earthquake is the most important threat to your building or facility in areas with high seismic activity like in Turkey.

So, how resistant is your building or facility to earthquakes?

HARDSHIELD, an Istanbul Technical University Technocity company, performs earthquake performance analysis of your building or facility with advanced analysis programs that uses with expert and academic career staff. Based on the analysis, diagnoses your building or facility and prepares a 100% approved report.

- The analysis is done completely in accordance with Turkey Building Earthquake Regulation 2018.

- In case of an earthquake, advanced software using finite element management is used against all possible movements of the structure.

-After the earthquake effect is given, the plastic rotations and deformations in beams, columns and curtains are calculated separately in all directions for each earthquake.

- The damage level of the elements (beam, column, curtain) is determined by comparing the deformations and plastic rotations obtained from the earthquake analysis with the limit values ​​that determine the damage status.

-The building performance is determined by examining the damages, first on the floor basis and then on the whole building.

- Service can be provided at all stages from analysis to strengthening of your building.
