POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS BEFORE AND IMMEDIATELY AFTER<br />
EARTHQUAKE<br />
PROF. CLAUDIO MODENA<br />
Experimental investigations <strong>and</strong> monitoring<br />
Several investigation procedures have been implemented; the attempt is to use non destructive<br />
techniques (NDT) as much as <strong>possible</strong>. With the exception of few MDT investigation techniques that can<br />
provide information about quantitative characteristics of materials <strong>and</strong> structural elements, most of the<br />
procedures can give only qualitative results<br />

Dynamic tests, control points<br />
