Façades of gothic Mediterranean cathedrals and fortifications. Constructive racionality facing earthquake

Abstract: This study continues the research taken by the teacher Cassinello, Doctoral Thesis "Seismic rationality in Gothic architecture: structural and building types" (Cassinello, 2005), where she checks the special constructive facing earthquakes configuration of Spanish cathedrals, sub...
