Recent moderate to strong earthquakes have confirmed the vulnerability of heritage buildings, especially those constructed with unreinforced-masonry materials in various developing countries, worldwide. Proper assessment of the seismic performance and of the potential deficiency of existing heritage structures forms the basis for determining the degree of intervention needed to preserve their heritage values. Analysis of masonry wall confined by wooden band has been carried out using various structural analysis programs. In analysis appropriately considered and introduced link element such as hook, gap and spring at connecting nodes of vertical and horizontal timber elements. The result shows that the traditional floors and spandrels of the existing structure are the vulnerable parts which need strengthening of them to assure the structural members are able to resist seismic vulnerability. The required improvement and strengthening technique in existing building are proposed and better results are marked. The analysis of the modified structure shows considerably improvement in the dynamic characteristics of the buildings and overall structural response of those.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>Большинство каменно-кладочных сооружений строилось во времена, когда при их проектировании сейсмический риск не учитывался. Недавние средние и сильные землетрясения показали уязвимость ветхих зданий, особенно построенных из неармированных каменных материалов в развивающихся странах по всему миру. Цель настоящего исследования - оценить сейсмические характеристики и потенциальные возможности существующих каменных, кирпичных строений. Для этого определялась степень укрепления строений, необходимого для сохранения их как бесценного наследия прошлого. Изучение кладки стены, ограниченной деревянной лентой, проводилось с использованием различных программ структурного анализа. Соответствующим образом рассмотрены и введены звенья таких элементов, как крюк, зазор и пружина, в узлах соединения вертикальных и горизонтальных деревянных элементов. В результате выявлено, что традиционные полы и своды существующих конструкций являются уязвимыми и нуждаются в укреплении, чтобы гарантированно противостоять землетрясениям. Предложены необходимые методы улучшения и укрепления существующих зданий. Анализ модифицированной конструкции показывает значительное улучшение динамических характеристик зданий и их общей конструктивной характеристики.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>stone masonry</kwd><kwd>band</kwd><kwd>band connector</kwd><kwd>spandrels</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>каменная кладка</kwd><kwd>пояс</kwd><kwd>врубка</kwd><kwd>свод</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group/></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Bothara J., Brzev S.
