In this research a comparison among the Italian and Mexican regulations for seismic assessment of old RC buildings is performed. The procedures indicated into the two design code are applied to a case study, an existing RC building constructed in Italy in the ‘70s and designed only for vertical loads. The comparative study mainly regards the definition of the seismic action through the response spectra, the modeling methods and verification criteria of primary RC elements. The paper concludes with a critical discussion of the obtained results.

Abstract
In this research a comparison among the Italian and Mexican regulations for seismic assessment of old RC buildings is performed. The procedures indicated into the two design code are applied to a case study, an existing RC building constructed in Italy in the ‘70s and designed only for vertical loads. The comparative study mainly regards the definition of the seismic action through the response spectra, the modeling methods and verification criteria of primary RC elements. The paper concludes with a critical discussion of the obtained results.File in questo prodotto:
