Abstract

In the course of history, the volcanic eruptions have always constituted a risk for the populations who live in the proximity of the eruptive vents. The volcanic fury, especially in case of explosive eruption, have caused many victims and today, almost half billion people is in danger. Therefore, the protection of buildings situated in volcanic areas appear to be a matter of concern. For these reasons, the study presented below intends to give an engineered characterization of the actions produced by the eruptions, in order to make the structural analysis possible in view of a vulnerability assessment of constructions under eruptive scenarios.
