Résumé (en anglais)

The Getty Conservation Institute’s Seismic Retrofitting Project (SRP) aims to combine traditional construction techniques and materials with high-tech methodologies for seismic strengthening of historic earthen buildings in Peru. The first phases of the project included identification and assessment of four prototype buildings, followed by laboratory testing, in-situ testing, and numerical analyses of the four sites, as well as the preparation of retrofitting designs and construction drawings. Retrofitting interventions have now been carried out at the 17th century Church of Kuñotambo, and construction drawings completed for the 18th century Cathedral of Ica. As part of the project, a series of technical training workshops on seismic interventions were held for over 80 specialized professionals of the Peruvian Ministry of Culture. These workshops included a theoretical introduction to conservation and the project methodology, structural testing and modeling, and practical, hands-on exercises on masonry underpinning, buttresses, timber ring beams and roofing solutions for seismic reinforcement of adobe buildings. Three more workshops are planned on the conservation of wall paintings. This paper describes the organization of the workshops focusing on the theoretical and practical exercises carried out and the impact of the workshops on course participants.
