摘要：This paper presents the results of static anddynamic analyses of the masonry monumentalstructure ‘Rang Ghar’ constructed during the Ahomdynasty (1744-1751 AD) in Sibsagar district ofAssam, India, using the commercial finite element(FE) software, Abaqus (2010). Rang Ghar is a twostoried masonry monumental structure of 12 meterheight, with a dome type roof, thick masonry wallsand a series of arch openings at both floors. Thestatic analysis shows that, in general, the structuralconfiguration of the masonry complex is adequate towithstand gravity loads (self weight and live load).Most stressed region is the entrance arch walls at theground level with a maximum value of compressivestress of about 0.45 MPa. Also, displacementresultant distribution suggests that a maximumdisplacement of around 0.94 mm at top arch roof.Based on the dynamic analysis, first three modeshapes of the Rang Ghar have been presented.
