This monograph describes a conceptual framework necessary for the formulation of seismic risk and of vulnerability studies. The Italian methodology of the vulnerability index is described for unreinforced masonry buildings and is applied to an area of the downtown of the city of Barcelona, Spain. A Geographical Information System (GIS) is used which allows automating the process completely and facilitates obtaining the results. Studies of observed seismic vulnerability, based on the damage caused by earthquakes in the past, are performed and their relationships with the previous method is examined. An efficient scheme is proposed to carry out post-earthquake investigations which is applied to the case of the two earthquakes that occurred ...
