Damage level

Fig. 6. Distribution and cumulative percentage of masonry buildings as function of damage level detected on VS (a).

The damage level has been influenced by the buildings’ characteristics (i.e., masonry type and quality, presence of tie roads and beams, and horizontal structural type). As the damage level increases the percentage of masonry with irregular layout and poor-quality increases (Fig. 7a). As expected, buildings without tie rods and tie beams resulted more vulnerable than buildings with tie rods and tie beams (Fig. 7b). The damage distribution has been influenced also by horizontal structural type (Fig. 7c). The deformability of horizontal structure affected the buildings’ global behavior: the percentage of buildings with vaults and flexible slabs increases in case of severe damage (i.e. D2-D3 and D4-D5) .

In order to evaluate the cross-correlations between the building damage and the buildings’ characteristics, the building damage state, DS , per building has been defined and dataset has been grouped in different classes with similar vulnerabilities. In litterature there are different conversion matrices to convert empircal damge on structural and not structural component to DS [Di Pasquale and Goretti, (2001), Dolce et al (2001), Dolce and Goretti, (2015), Rosti et al., (2018), Del Gaudio et al., (2019)] and to grouped buildings into vulnerability classses [Zuccaro and Cacace, (2015), Dolce and Goretti, (2015)] To define the building damage state, the damage data detected on the vertical structures by means of AeDES form was converted into 6 DS ( DS0, DS1, DS2, DS3, DS4, DS5 ) by employing the conversion matrices reported in Dolce et al., (2019). In terms of vulnerability, the masonry buildings have been grouped into low, significant and high vulnerability according to the criteria reported in Dolce and Goretti, (2015) and based on data collected on vertical
