QUASI-STATIC TESTS ON WALL ELEMENTS CONSTRUCTED DURING THE RECONSTRUCTION OF ST. ATHANASIUS CHURCH IN LESHOK
The church of St. Athanasius is situated within the monastic complex of the Holy Virgin in the village of Leshok Tetovo area. On August 21, 2001, during the armed conflicts in R. Macedonia, this monastic church experienced strong detonation which resulted in its almost complete demolition: a greater part of the church was torn down, while the still existing part was characterized by severe damage. The Main Project on the Reconstruction of the Monastic Church of St. Athanasius has been realized by the Institute of Earthquake Engineering and Engineering Seismology, IZIIS in collaboration with the Republic Institute for Protection of Cultural Monuments and has been financed by the European Agency for Reconstruction. To verify experimentally the design strength characteristics of lime mortar, used as a basis for the elaboration of the structural solution for reconstruction of the church, quasi-static tests on wall elements were carried out in the Dynamic Testing Laboratory of IZIIS in accordance with the previously adopted testing programme and scheme and the corresponding age of the wall elements. The wall elements were constructed in the same way as the original bearing walls of the St. Athanasius church. The paper presents the objective, the procedure and the results from these experimental quasi-static tests.
