Abstract: | Considering the number of endangered museums in Istanbul and the size of their collections, assessing and mitigating the earthquake
risk is an immense task by any standard. This paper provides a status report on the current earthquake risk mitigation efforts
taken by the museums in Turkey. It summarizes several projects that have been carried out over the past few years to protect
museums and its collections from earthquake damage and defines future actions that would mitigate earthquake risks associated
with museum buildings and their contents. |
