Seismic Vulnerability of Timber Roof Structures: Classification Criteria

Article Preview

Abstract:

Criteria for assigning class values to different vulnerability indicators in a procedure for assessing the seismic vulnerability of timber roof structures are discussed here. The main issues concern grading the structural typology, the quality of the carpentry joints, the effectiveness of supports, the effect of strengthening interventions, if present, and the resulting global behavior.
