Summary
A Special Issue for Buildings, entitled "Seismic Performance Assessment of Buildings", comprises seven original research studies from international experts from Italy, Portugal, Switzerland, and New Zealand. The contributions address the seismic assessment of reinforced concrete wall buildings; reinforced concrete buildings at an urban scale; residential unreinforced masonry buildings, including timber diaphragms and structural irregularities; complex monumental unreinforced masonry buildings; and adobe buildings.
