Study on the Seismic Performance of Rural Buildings in Beijing Area

Wenchuan earthquake caused huge losses in rural areas. The subject briefly introduced the earthquake damage characteristics of masonry structures, analyzed the earthquake damage reasons. The main purpose is to propose some measures to improve the seismic capacity of rural buildings in Beijing area. Through two seismic fortification measures, can effectively enhance the integrity of the masonry structure, reduce the seismic response, effectively improve the seismic capacity of the structure.
