The objective of this study is to verify whether the addition principle can be used to evaluate the seismic performance of temples and shrines combined with several types of seismic elements. Static loading tests were performed on several types of wooden frame specimens with columns, a kashira-nuki, an uchinori-nuki, an ashigatame-nuki, wooden siding walls and mud walls. From the test results, the load-deformation angle relationships and damage situations were clarified. By comparing the load-deformation angle relationships of different types of specimens, the relationship between the number of seismic elements and load increase ratio were determined.
