| Abstract | Some of the hospitals in the area of the seismic sequence in Umbria and Marche (Italy), started on September 26 1997, have been inspected in order to identify the most frequent malfunctioning causes and the most opportune measures to improve their seismic performance, which is of key importance for emergencies management. A brief description of the structural damages and the functional response of the hospitals short after the earthquake are presented. First hints for the repair of the damaged parts and for the improvement of the system for future events are drawn. |
