Seismic risk map for the Italian residential building stock

The paper illustrates the seismic risk maps derived for the residential building stock of Italy by using a general framework specifically set up by the authors for mapping seismic risk for a generic asset of interest. Seismic risk maps are computed taking into account a seismogenic model of the analyzed area, and properly characterizing vulnerability and exposure of an asset of interest. A risk-targeted indicator named Municipal Expected Annual Loss (MEAL) is introduced and used as suitable metric for the development of the maps, and for the subsequent seismic risk rating.
