Abstract

Extensive damage to school buildings has been observed during past earthquakes in Italy, with the 2002 Molise event resulting in the complete collapse of a school building leading to numerous casualties. As part of a wider project in Italy to assess the seismic risk in school structures, six school buildings of various construction typologies were surveyed and instrumented to validate detailed numerical models of typical school structures located throughout Italy.
