This study evaluates the susceptibility of masonry arches to earthquake loading through experimental testing and progresses toward a specific criterion by which arches can be quickly assessed. Five different earthquake time histories, as well as harmonic base excitations of increasing amplitude, were applied to model arches, and the magnitude of the base motion resulting in collapse was determined repeatedly. Results are compared with failure predictions of an analytical model which describes the rocking motion of masonry arches under base excitation. The primary impulse of the base excitation is found to be of critical importance in causing collapse of the masonry arch. Accordingly, a suite of failure curves are presented which can be used to determine the rocking stability of masonry arches under a primary base acceleration impulse which has been extracted from an expected earthquake motion.
