As part of the "CONSTRAIN" project, intervention strategies for reducing the seismic vulnerability of existing masonry buildings were developed and their effectiveness verified through a significant experimental campaign. Basically, the proposed strategies make it possible to obtain significant reductions in seismic vulnerability with interventions carried out from outside the buildings, without requiring the movement of people and things inside the buildings, with significant savings in economic terms but above all in terms of discomfort for people.
- This results in significant financial savings, but more importantly, it makes the intervention much more occupant-friendly. In the proposed project, we intend to develop a design methodology or guidelines and apply it to actual buildings that are planned for seismic retrofitting. The analytical and numerical procedures will be validated and calibrated on the investigations already carried out in the CONSTRAIN project.
The main project outputs will be available soon.
