16. Abstracts
The goal of the workshop was to define the most important research needs in the fields
of repair, strengthening and rehabilitatirin of buildings in order to protect them and
their occupants against natural hazards. The emphasis of the workshop was directed
toward earthquake resistant buildings. Participants were structural designers, con-
structors, and materials specialists experienced in the repair, strengthening, and
rehabilitation of buildings. The three working groups were given the task to identify
the most urgent research efforts needed in the fi el d. They made the foll owi ng recom-
mendations: (1) research is vital and all persons in the field are encouraged to
seek financial assistance to develop the needed information; (2) the most immediate
needs relate to the evaluation of existing lime-mortar brick buildings; (3) a guideline
for the evaluation of existing buildings is needed; (4) a manual of practice for the
use of various repair materials and techniques is needed; (5) in the rehabilitation
planning, the entire building must be considered, not just its components; (6) an
extensive educational effort is needed; (7) all interested parties should be involved
in the decision process on the level of rehabilitation needed; and (8) governmental
cooperation is needed to allow full-scale tests of buildings.
