Base de Dades de Sismicitat Històrica dels Terratrèmols dels segles XIV i XV a Catalunya

In areas characterized by a moderate seismicity like Catalonia, where is not possible identify the epicenters to the known active faults it is necessary from a point of practical view introduce the concepts as the seismotectonic domain rather active faults.

Seismic risk assessment of Catalonia
In determined areas of Catalonia that are exposed to a higher risk will be possible to find situations of seismic emergency. The combination of the seismic zones and of the seismic vulnerability of the buildings permits to perform seismic scenarious for each municipality of Catalonia.
