Abstract
In existing buildings, it may be necessary to repair, adapt, renew, relocate or demolish buildings and building parts that have come to the end of their usage period due to spatial, functional, technical and economic obsolescence. After the necessary applications to extend the service life of buildings, it is of great importance to analyze the dynamic behavior of buildings under soil-structure interaction and earthquake loads and to obtain accurate results. In this study, the seismic soil-structure interaction of the historical Sungur Bey Mosque, which was first built in 1577 but was disassembled, moved and rebuilt in another area (relocated) in order to preserve its historical and cultural values and extend its service life, was examined. The analysis of the masonry structure that survived after the Sivrice (2020) earthquake, where the great loss of life and property occurred, was carried out with the PLAXIS 3D software program. The real record of the Sivrice NS (2020) earthquake was used in dynamic analysis. Local soil properties obtained as a result of field investigation studies were utilized in numerical modeling. Depending on the result of the analyzes, the effects of soil-structure interaction on a reconstructed historical masonry structure were examined. The results obtained from the analysis showed that the local soil conditions have an amplification effect on seismic waves that may induce structural damages in prospective seismic events.
