Seismic risk assessment: the case study of Barberino di Mugello municipality

Recent seismic events, that occurred in the Italian territory, highlighted the importance of increasing knowledge about seismicity and seismic risk. To this aim, in recent years scientific research developed several models for assessing seismic risk and seismic vulnerability of the built environment. In this paper, the seismic risk assessment of the Mugello area is presented, with particular attention to the municipality of Barberino di Mugello within the Florence district. Seismic vulnerability at the territorial scale is assessed by applying and then comparing the results of different literature approaches. Furthermore, the comparison between the results obtained and the observed field data collected from the AeDES forms is proposed in terms of unusable buildings. AeDES forms were filled out by different technicians after the moderate seismic event (Mw 4.5) that struck the Mugello area in December 2019.
