DOI: 10.1016/j.culher.2017.02.015
Abstract: Abstract Specific architectural elements can be identified in constructions located in regions frequently exposed to earthquakes. These earthquake resistant features were developed empirically by local communities to protect their built-up environment. Research in these traditional… read more here.
