Tests results and simple structural analysis of the main lighthouse in the Harbor of Livorno (Italy)

摘要

The present work assesses the structural analysis of the main lighthouse of Livorno's harbor. It is made by a r.c. framework, built in the 50s as reconstruction of medieval tower similar to it. The wind and seismic actions (with and without collaboration of the masonry infill and facade) are investigated, showing the fundamental contribution of the masonry layers for a satisfactory structural response.
