READINESS

In the framework of the READINESS Project, the S2X Team has carried out a structural monitoring campaign whose results have been also used for fast seismic vulnerability assessment of a set of strategic public buildings in the Molise region, Southern Italy. About 20 reinforced concrete strategic buildings have been inspected, surveyed, and monitored for several weeks. The collected data have been unitarily processed and the results of vibration-based monitoring have been integrated into a procedure for seismic vulnerability assessment at regional scale. The integration of monitoring results in the seismic evaluation process represents one of the main outcomes of the present activity. Overall, the activities of the project required the installation on 17 buildings of 90 sensors, 4500 m of cables, 17 measurement systems.
