Abstract

Compared with other diagnostic techniques, which are limited to the local investigation, the structural dynamic monitoring allows to obtain information about seismic response and vulnerability of structures, in their whole. The experimental modal analysis evaluates the dynamic parameters such as frequencies, vibration modes and damping coefficients. For historic buildings, due to their heterogeneity and complexity, these data are not yet readily available. The possibility of applying the simplified procedures for the dynamic identification of the different historic structural typologies is, therefore, strategic to obtain useful information to apply the design criteria and the structural verifications in the seismic field. Besides the simplified procedures allow an optimization both on the execution time and on the costs. The paper provides some hypothesis of simplified dynamic monitoring procedures through the reduction/optimization of the accelerometric sensors used for three case studies, which differ in structural typology such as Churches, Towers and Palaces.
