5. Conclusions This paper deals with the seismic fragility assessment of Balvano (Italy) through hybrid-based urban fragility curves. The urban center of Balvano was struck by several high-intensity earthquakes over the centuries, and in particular by the M=6.90 1980 Irpinia earthquake which caused a high number of heavily damaged, partially and totally collapsed buildings. Building inventory pre-and post-1980 has been identified, and the following main results have been achieved:  Hybrid-based fragility curves resulted effective in reproducing the seismic fragility of urban areas, in fact, a good matching between the damage scenario occurred in 1980, and the predicted one was found. Then, the proposed methodology can represent a useful tool for predicting the damage scenario of minor Italian urban centres.  Damage Scenario Matrices, obtained through the hazard disaggregation analysis, has been introduced. They provided a more exhaustive damage prediction, resulting in proper support for urban-scale seismic assessment.  Comparison between predicted damage scenarios pre-and post-1980 showed the effectiveness of the first seismic prescriptions adopted for the reconstruction of Balvano after the 1980 earthquake. In fact, a significant reduction of both seismic vulnerability and EAL resulted from the conducted analyses.  In the future, the aspects regarding the generation of a web-GIS application and the development of more refined EAL models will be investigated.
