The installation of exterior facades made of metal elements in buildings is a dual function application: On one hand it alters the facade, through architectural modifications, and on the other it creates the conditions for the improvement of energy efficiency of the building, utilizing the gap that develops between old and new facade. In order to ensure that the suspension and anchoring system can safely receive both static and dynamic loads, which will strain the construction during its life cycle, it is necessary to carry out a set of controls that will ensure exactly this: the static and anti-seismic adequacy of the used suspension and anchoring system. For this reason, a building consisting of frames was chosen, on the perimeter of which masonry was placed and, then, the metal facades were hung on the masonry, through the use of appropriate joints. Through Dynamic Spectral Analysis and Time History Analysis, the adequacy or not of the suspension system was examined, but also the effects that the system had on the modal, strain and deformation sizes of the building. In the end, it was concluded that the attachment of elements to the facade of the building, although it is done for architectural or other purposes, brings about significant changes in its seismic response and, therefore, must be adequately studied.

“…Concerning the seismic response of the TRM technology, it mainly depends on the TRM system, even if some studies in the literature have investigated possible structural benefits derived from the application of thermal insulation panels on masonry walls (Manos et al, 2021). Among the advantages, their durability and lightweight make TRM a suitable solution for seismic retrofit.…”

The European building stock presents pertinent issues needing suitable strategies to be solved. In detail, this regards seismic safety and energy efficiency of buildings to ensure more liveable and safe cities, which represents an important goal for modern societies. Energy performance includes both comfort and saving, the latter required for a more responsible resource consumption within the building sector, having a considerable contribution to the total demand. Current strategies do not seem to be able to simultaneously solve such aspects satisfactorily, both for higher economic requirements and poor technical feasibility implied by separated and disharmonious interventions. Thus, a holistic perspective should be adopted to pursue such an ambitious objective, which has recently gained increasing attention among researchers. Current requirements are firstly highlighted to show the need for an integrated approach to building retrofit. Secondly, a critical review of integrated strategies combining seismic and energy refurbishment proposed in the literature is reported. Then, special issues are discussed, including the feasibility of an integrated approach applied to heritage buildings. This study revealed that a fully efficient strategy for integrated retrofit has not still been proposed in the literature and there are several open issues to be solved. However, current solutions may be further developed to improve them and the several options currently available demonstrated the increasing attention and importance of the topic. Finally, concluding remarks on this research topic have been drawn to promote future studies.
