Notes on Building Classes
It must be pointed out that the RC buildings of Thessaloniki in 1978 were all pre-code and low-code (in roughly 20/80 split, 11/89 in the area surveyed by Penelis in the east of the city, which is newer).
It must be pointed out that the RC buildings of Thessaloniki are mostly 4 to 10 storeys (82% of the Penelis sample) and that the % of RC buildings damaged increased with the height (single-storey 5.6% damaged; 7-10 storey 34.8% damaged).
