Seismic Vulnerability of the Concordia Temple
This work focuses on the seismic risk evaluation of the Concordia temple, situated in the Valley of the Temples in Agrigento (Italy). In the paper a general methodology to assess the seismic vulnerability, to be applied also to any kind of structures composed of stone blocks, is proposed.
