Figure 2. Lithologic map of the urban area of Rome together with the distribution of
the damage caused by the 1915 Fucino earthquake (after
Ambrosini et al., 1986).
Three types of damage are distinguished: slight damage (cracking of plaster, the
downfall of small pieces of moldings), intermediate damage (between slight and
heavy damage), and heavy damage (deep and diffuse damage of indoor and outdoor
walls, downfall of large parts of moldings and of chimneys).
