Popis: State of the art review of recent seismic hazard assessment studies related to the impact of the strong Vrancea earthquakes on the Bulgarian territory is provided. The regional danger due to these quakes requires particular engineers’ attention and care, especially with respect to the existing buildings. Some earthquake engineering aspects of these shocks are commented, based on the published analysis of the available macroseismic, instrumental data and first order estimates of the earthquake capacity resistance of typical structural systems exposed to the Vrancea seismic action. Further relevant studies and possible joint activities are set out in brief.
