| Summary: | Timber framed masonry houses represent a traditional type of house that can be found in many countries in the world, having small differences in details though. In Romania, this type of house is spread around the Vrancea seismic source, but not limited to that area. Until now, no studies were done on the Romanian timber framed masonry houses in terms of ambient vibration testing and analysis. This paper presents the first study of this kind, conducted on a house with timber frames and masonry infills, which is located in the National Village Museum, namely representing Sarbova area, Timiş County. Ambient vibration tests were done using velocity sensors, and thus determining the modal frequencies, and a simplified analytical study was further conducted leading to similar results as the experiment. |
