On the monitoring of historic Anime Sante church damaged by earthquake in L'Aquila
The paper shows the activity of a 2‐year static and dynamic monitoring activity to check the structural response and the actual level of damage of a historic church hit by earthquake in L'Aquila (Italy) in 2009. Structural health monitoring was carried out with accelerometers and transducers that recorded time histories of the main earthquake‐induced ground motions and ambient vibrations. The paper focuses particularly on residual performance and assessment of the ancient church after six earthquake response data set—because of the seismic swarm—via a modal identification of output‐only systems by using frequency domain decomposition. In this way, fundamental frequency, mode shapes, damping ratios and displacements can be estimated without knowing the input that has excited the system. The dynamic monitoring provides also a way to check possible drops of tension in the cables and relaxation in the FRP belts used for safety. Efficiency and reliability of modal identification of basilica‐type churches, via the dynamic response of macro‐elements only in comparison with the whole analysis, are finally proposed.
