Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors inspected approximately 300 primary and secondary schools in 87 municipalities of Molise and found that about 40% were masonry structures, 40% reinforced concrete (RC) frame structures, and the remaining 20% were a variety of structures Almost all of them were built without seismic criteria and most had no more than three stories.
Abstract: The authors inspected approximately 300 primary and secondary schools in 87 municipalities of Molise About 40% were masonry structures, 40% were reinforced concrete (RC) frame structures, and the remaining 20% were a variety of structures Almost all of them were built without seismic criteria and most had no more than three stories In this paper we compare the distribution of the damage with the vulnerability classes The collapses in San Giuliano di Puglia highlight the comparative vulnerabilities related to structural types, construction phases, and location

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, some key aspects of structural models of smooth reinforcement for old-type r.c. frame analysis are reported, and results of experimental tests on smooth reinforcement and circular hook anchoring devices are also used to discuss some aspects of behavioural models of beam to column critical regions.
