Procedures for seismic assessment of unreinforced masonry buildings
be seismically assessed. If the building is found to have less than 1/3rd of the strength of a comparable new building, then it is described as earthquake prone, and must be either strengthened or demolished. To complete the assessment process, all buildings are first subject to an Initial Evaluatio...
