Abstract

On April 6th 2009 an earthquake struck the Abruzzo Region, Central Italy. It was of Richter magnitude (Ml) 5.8 and moment magnitude (Mw) 6.3. The most affected centre was L'Aquila, a historical city and capital of the region, but several small towns were also involved in the event. Many Municipalities stricken by the earthquake have therefore developed Reconstruction Plans that are urban planning tools with the aim of control and manage the reconstruction process of damaged towns, promoting the recovery and requalification of existing buildings and facilitating the execution of the intervention works. In this paper, the main features of the Reconstruction Plans adopted by four Municipalities that once belonged to the Barony of Carapelle, are presented, reporting a brief outline of the damage and highlighting the standards adopted for the preservation of historical heritage which support the implementation of interventions that are compatible with the preservation and restoration of buildings.
