Vulnerable Part Analysis and Structural Safety Evaluation of Gopura Structure at Preah Pithu T temple in Cambodia
The Gopura in Preah Pithu T temple, which is partially damaged and collapsed, is densely wooded and has a high percentage of humidity due to moats and ponds, the stone materials are not in good condition and significantly damaged due to intrinsic structural defects and other damage factors. The examination of major endangered and vulnerable parts through status analysis is also necessary in order to restore the Gopura in T temple in a more structurally stable state. This study proposes the effective structural safety inspection measures by applying rational structural modeling and structural analysis method reflecting the damage type by construction type and carrying out structural safety evaluation by damage type and member based on the results of analysis.
