Tecniche di valutazione del rischio sismico dei complessi ospedalieri

Seismic risk assessment of existing buildings is a very complex topic for researchers and engineers. Seismic evaluation of hospitals is quite more difficult, because of structurals, functionals, and equipments complexity. The paper, after a overview on current practice in this field, will finally present a case study, the hospital of Arzignano (Vicenza, Italy). Not only the structural safety, but also the assessment of non structural building elements are discussed.

This paper is available in Italian only.
