“…• operating costs. The procedure for classifying defects is a very complex and discrete task, since the probability of occurrence of defects depends on a large number of factors [11][12][13] reason may be as climatic effects, violation of technology in construction and installation works, non-compliance with temperature and humidity conditions indoors, and not according to the purpose of the building and its actual operation. Unfortunately, it is impossible to predict all possible options.…”

The article is devoted to the problem of the absence of the unified defects classification within the multipurpose technical test of buildings and constructions on the territory of the Russian Federation. It draws attention to the significance of detected faults finding and their risks in the case of the further building usage. The extract from the authorial Defects Classification created for inspection of bearing structures of large-panel, monolithic and brick buildings is given in the article to demonstrate the ways of examining the above mentioned constructions.

“…14). This effect over time can be very dangerous for the structure even for vertical loads [20][21][22]. Some cracks have been detected on the bell frame where the bells are placed, a more detailed analysis should be developed to understand the relation between these cracks and the bell forces.…”

The aim of the paper is to perform a preliminary assessment of the dynamic behavior of the bell tower of Basilica Church "S.S. Medici", one of the most important church in the town of Bitonto, Bari, Italy. The tower is 55 m tall and it is made in reinforced concrete. It is totally disconnected from the main structure of the Church. The structural behavior of the tower has been investigated by performing dynamic experimental tests, which have been executed in two different forcing conditions: recording the vibrations induced only by ambient loads, and, then the ones due to ambient loads and to the excitation produced by the bells. Four bells are housed in the lower bell chamber on a concrete bell frame, four more bells are housed at a higher level bell frame. All the bells are directly connected to the tower and swing in the same direction, so that their movement introduces a dynamic excitation on the tower. The experimental records have detected excessive movements on the tower when the bells swing.

“…Experimental studies on the deposition of marine aerosols in samples placed at different distances from the sea (Lindvall, 2007;de Rincon et al, 2007;Adam et al, 2016;Meira et al 2017) provide values of the superficial chlorides concentration (hereinafter defined Cs), a parameter that allows to evaluate the corrosion initiation time. The values assumed by Cs are extremely variable and it is very difficult to define it uniquely.…”

Reinforced concrete (RC) structures frequently are deteriorated by corrosion attack where pitting morphology is the worst form of degradation. Appropriate vulnerability analyses, accounting for the variation of mechanical properties of material during the time, give an assessment of the residual service life of corroded structures. Aim of the present paper is to evaluate any variation in the seismic behaviour of an irregular poor-designed RC frame subjected to the chloride attack. The progressive stiffness degradation and the effects of higher modes are considered in the study by means of displacement-based adaptive pushover analyses.
