Title Of Article :
STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS AND SEISMIC BEHAVIOR OF YIVLI MINARET
Abstract :
Minaret is symbolic structural form of Islamic architecture. It is significant with its free- standing structure which is higher than any neighboring structure. While the height of a minaret makes it a landmark, it also makes the structure delicate. Especially in regions under seismic risk, the stability of historic minarets becomes issue of a vital importance. The aim of this paper is to evaluate the structural performance of Yivli Minaret, a Seljuk structure in Antalya-Turkey, under expected earthquake loads.
