Abstract

The border area between Italy and Slovenia has been chosen for a proposed project on border earthquake's assessment (BEA). Attempts at the unification of macroseismic practice among the countries have been rare and not very successful, due to the different and often incompatible local traditions for the derivation of intensity data. With the publication of the new EMS-92 scale, the idea was born to try to unify the procedures in data collection on both sides of the border. The pilot project was proposed, consisting mainly of the preparation for eventual strong earthquakes in the future. A special civil engineering form for damage assessment was designed to be used in the damaged area. The path of this idea is presented. Copyright Kluwer Academic Publishers 1999
