Seismic Classification In Italy
The seismic classification in Italy () is the subdivision of the territory of Italy into specific areas, characterized by a common seismic risk. Currently the seismic classification of the Italian territory into zones has remained exclusively for statistical and administrative aspects. With the legislation that came into force in 2009 (NTC08), after the earthquake that affected the city of L'Aquila, a new calculation methodology based on a point-like statistical approach is used for the purpose of anti-seismic design. Each point of the Italian territory is characterized by a precise ground acceleration value (Peak Ground Acceleration) as a function of a return time (ie a probabilistic value). * Zone 1 : high seismicity (PGA over 0.25 g), includes 708 municipalities. * Zone 2 : medium-high seismicity (PGA between 0.15 and 0.25 g), includes 2,345 municipalities (in Tuscany and Piedmont some municipalities are classified in Zone 3S, medium seismicity, which requires the calculation o ...

Italy
Italy ( it, Italia ), officially the Italian Republic, ) or the Republic of Italy, is a country in Southern Europe. It is located in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea, and its territory largely coincides with the homonymous geographical region. Italy is also considered part of Western Europe, and shares land borders with France, Switzerland, Austria, Slovenia and the enclaved microstates of Vatican City and San Marino. It has a territorial exclave in Switzerland, Campione. Italy covers an area of , with a population of over 60 million. It is the third-most populous member state of the European Union, the sixth-most populous country in Europe, and the tenth-largest country in the continent by land area. Italy's capital and largest city is Rome. Italy was the native place of many civilizations such as the Italic peoples and the Etruscans, while due to its central geographic location in Southern Europe and the Mediterranean, the country has also historically been home ...

Peak Ground Acceleration
Peak ground acceleration (PGA) is equal to the maximum ground acceleration that occurred during earthquake shaking at a location. PGA is equal to the amplitude of the largest absolute acceleration recorded on an wikt:accelerogram, accelerogram at a site during a particular earthquake. Earthquake shaking generally occurs in all three directions. Therefore, PGA is often split into the horizontal and vertical components. Horizontal PGAs are generally larger than those in the vertical direction but this is not always true, especially close to large earthquakes. PGA is an important parameter (also known as an intensity measure) for earthquake engineering, The design basis earthquake ground motion (DBEGM) is often defined in terms of PGA. Unlike the Richter magnitude scale, Richter and Moment magnitude scale, moment magnitude scales, it is not a measure of the total seismic scales#Magnitude and intensity, energy (magnitude, or size) of an earthquake, but rather of how hard the earth shake ...
