Case Study
• Location: Dubrovnik, Croatia
• Dubrovnik region is
seismically and
tectonically very active.
• Estimated maximum
possible magnitude of Mw
7.5
SPANDREL
PIER
RIGID NODE
• With this type of analysis only the in-plane actions are considered. The out of plane
actions are not in the scope of this project.
• Due to the squat piers and the material of the structure, the failure mode is brittle
as expected.
• In order to confirm that the structure satisfies the seismic codes, a comparison with
the seismic demand needs to be made.
