Structural damages to RC (Reinforced concrete) buildings occasionally occur as a consequence of sudden ground movements. One of these is effect of tunnel excavation on the structures and the design process should be carried out by taking the effect into account. In this study, the structural damages caused by the impact of sudden movement emanating at the ground were investigated for a selected hospital building. Within the scope of this study, it was aimed to obtain the most accurate data by combining different engineering disciplines through a comprehensive approach.Original Abstract: Nagli pomaci u tlu mogu dovesti do ostecenja armiranobetonskih gradevina. Takvi pomaci mogu izmedu ostalog biti uzrokovani gradnjom tunela, pa se utjecaj takve gradnje treba uzeti u obzir u postupku projektiranja gradevina. U ovom se radu na primjeru postojece bolnicke zgrade analiziraju konstrukcijska ostecenja armiranobetonske gradevine uslijed naglih pomaka tla. Kako bi se dobili sto tocniji podaci za potrebe analiza, primijenjen je multidisciplinarni pristup radi povezivanja raznih inzenjerskih disciplina koje su sudjelovale u ovom istrazivanju.
