Abstract

In all European countries the will to conserve the building heritage is very strong Unfortunately large areas in Europe are characterised by a high level of seismic hazard and the vulnerability of ancient masonry structures is often relevant The large number of monumental buildings in urban areas requires facing the problem with a methodology that can be applied at territorial scale with simplified models which need little easily obtainable data Within the RiskUE project a new methodology has been stated for the seismic vulnerability assessment of monumental buildings which considers two different approaches a macroseismic model to be used with macroseismic intensity hazard maps and a mechanical based model to be applied when the hazard is provided in terms of peak ground accelerations and spectral values Both models can be used with data of different reliability and depth This paper illustrates the theoretical basis and defines the parameters of the two models An application to an important church is presented
