CLASSIFICATION OF RESIDENTIAL BUILDING STOCK IN SERBIA [PDF]

2nd Croatian Conference on Earthquake Engineering ‒ 2CroCEE, 2023
Developing a classification system (taxonomy) for buildings is a critical step for seismic risk assessment studies. Such a system can be used to characterize a building portfolio within urban/rural settlements or building stock for the entire country. Serbia is located in a region characterized by a moderate seismic hazard.
