Abstract

Based on the characteristics of large spacing masonry buildings with few transverse walls and theseismic hazards on teaching buildings, the authors analyzed the effects of constructional columns and ring beams to the seismic resistance of buildings and presented the concept of improving ductility of buildings.Some suggestions were then proposed for the design of this type of structures.
