The Medina of Al Hoceima (Morocco): Seismic Risk Assessment of Architecturally Irregular Buildings
Assessing seismic vulnerability is of crucial importance in establishing the degree of resilience of existing buildings to earthquakes. Unfortunately, the northern region of Morocco has witnessed several devastating earthquakes in recent years, resultant in loss of life and considerable material damage. Al Hoceima is in an area characterized by intense seismic activity, where the terrain displays slopes ranging from 10 % to 40 %, in this context, the major objective of the present study is to strengthen our understanding of the inherent seismic vulnerability of irregular architectural structures when subjected to seismic loads.
