Abstract

Traditional immovable cultural assets are significant in terms of societal memory and cultural continuity. Therefore, it is essential to preserve their original qualities without alteration while also assessing their resilience under various influences. This study aims to document the Kırklareli Museum building and conduct a performance analysis for potential earthquake scenarios. To this end, surveys of the structure were conducted, on-site inspections were carried out, and ground and material properties were determined for use in the analysis. The 3D model of the structure was prepared to understand its behavior during earthquakes. The analysis results indicate that there will be no damage to the structure. However, it should be noted that damage could occur in the event of a more severe earthquake than the design earthquake specified by the regulations. This study is significant not only for encompassing the museum structure but also for providing a comprehensive evaluation by determining all material properties.
