Identification of Structural Systems in Iranian Architecture

Authors : Hamed Hayaty and Reza Afshin Far

Abstract: Persian architecture is full of hints that it may sometimes be discovered and used and its foundation and tradition is the dynamics and being up to date. So, the biggest features of such a buildings are all-round vision and scientific, technical and administrative discerning to its stability. Since, Iran is located on seismic zone, Iranian architects throughout history have always tried to create and develop architectures species that adapts to the climatic characteristics, uses local materials and be stable against earthquake and ground motions. So, in this way, they have succeeded to develop Niaresh issues and have achieved the sustainable species in designing and implementing coatings. In this research, given that this is a descriptive-analytic study, retrofitting techniques of arches, groins and domes are recognized in traditional Iranian architecture and Niaresh various techniques creating sustainable architecture have been introduced. Thus, according to the resources available, contents relevant to stduy topic are summarized and considered in terms of Niaresh.
