A study for the requalification and safety against natural hazards of the environmental and building heritage of Sant’Agata de’ Goti (Italy)

摘要

The historical center of Sant’Agata de’ Goti (Campania region, Italy) is located on arnsteep and narrow cliff of pyroclastic soils and rocks, overlying a thick Miocene flysch formation, whichrnmakes it particularly sensitive to both landslide and seismic hazards. The paper describes the subsoil characterizationrnand two urban design proposals submitted to the town municipality by a multi-disciplinaryrnresearch team. The first proposal deals with the environmental requalification of a cliff side, by assessingrnthe stability of the overlooking cavities and by reshaping and consolidating the rock slope through reinforcedrnearth and nailing. The second one includes a site-specific evaluation of seismic response, addressedrnto verify the seismic safety of the foundations of a masonry historical building.
