Abstract
From the L’Aquila 2009 earthquake three issues, among others, strongly emerged to be addressed for the engineered structures, at least in Europe. They are related to near-source effects, non-st ructural damage, and reparability. Although they are well known since quite long time, still regulations seem giving little, if any, practice-ready tools to account for them. In the chapter, evidences from the event and scientific needs are briefly reviewed and discussed. The modest aim of the paper is to stimulate debate and research in the light of next generation of seismic codes.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
