Item type:Publication, Non-Destructive Testing and Historic Building Information Modelling for the Structural Diagnosis of the Church of the Society of Jesus in Cusco, Peru(Inderscience Publishers, 2023-12-03)This paper aims at presenting the results of a set of non-destructive tests (NDT) applied to an emblematic stone masonry church and the generation of a 3D parametric model to store and visualise structural diagnosis information following the historic building information modelling (HBIM) framework. Reverse engineering techniques were applied to obtain a precise point cloud of the church. NDT results exposed that the church currently presents several structural anomalies such as cracks, efflorescence, and moisture, among others. In addition, the mechanical characterisation showed that the masonry walls and pillars have an elasticity modulus within the expected range. Furthermore, with the application of operational modal analysis (OMA), it was possible to identify three modes of vibration of the structure. The representation of all the non-geometric information inside the HBIM model plus the generation of a custom plugin allowed the visualisation and adequately managing of the structural diagnosis information of the project. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Integration of NDT, 3D Parametric Modelling, and Nonlinear Numerical Analysis for the Seismic Assessment of a Vaulted Stone-Masonry Historical Building(Elsevier Ltd, 2023-07-01)This paper presents the integration of parametric modelling with NDT (NDT) and advanced numerical simulations for assessing the seismic response of an emblematic stone-masonry vaulted construction, the 16th-century church of the Society of Jesus located in Cusco, Peru. Revit parametric families allowed the creation of complex curved elements such as vaults and 3D geometrical models of the church based on a hybrid point cloud. The onsite survey results indicated that the main anomalies correspond to the presence of biological agents and cracking. In contrast, NDT allowed the estimation of the masonry material properties and the modal identification primarily of the towers. Finally, the application of pushover analyses allowed the estimation of the structure's maximum load capacity and post-peak behavoir. It was possible to determine that some collapse mechanisms (overturning of main façade and bell towers, and the generation of hinges in curved elements) can be activated in medium-strong earthquakes.
