The Use of SMAV Model for Computing Fragility Curves

Among the buildings with strategic role for civil protection purposes part of them were built before the introduction of modern seismic codes.Aiming Lifestyle to guarantee their operability in case of seismic events, they have to be assessed and, hopefully, seismically upgraded.This aspect arises the necessity of reliable low computational demandin
