This work aims to better understand and improve the dynamic characterization of concrete frame buildings through the combined use of finite element modeling and applied seismology. The behavior of the FEM model is compared with values obtained directly in situ through non-invasive tests based on a sensor capable of detecting the seismic microtremor and provide direct information in terms of oscillation periods and displacements. The case study structure was measured using a seismometer, and, at the same time, modeled using SAP2000. By starting from extremely different initial data, multiple variations were made to the model to produce an increase in frequency, aligning it with the one detected instrumentally.

The paper describes the progress of the four-year European project Pro-GET-onE currently under implementation. This research and innovation project is based on the assumption that greater efficiency, attractiveness, and marketable renovation can only be achieved through an integrated set of technologies where all the different requirements (energy, structural, functional) are optimally managed. Thus, the project focuses on the unprecedented integration of different technologies to achieve a multi-benefit approach that is provided by a closer integration between energy and non-energy related benefits. The project aims to combine different pre-fabricated elements in a unified and integrated system resulting in a higher performance in terms of energy requirements, structural safety, and social sustainability. The project attempts to achieve this goal through the introduction of innovative solutions for building envelopes to optimally combine the climatic, structural, and functional aspects through a significant architectural transformation and a substantial increase of the real estate value of the buildings. This augmented value obtained through the application of the inteGrated Efficient Technologies (GETs) is extremely important when considering the necessity of creating an innovative and attractive market in the energy renovation of existing buildings towards the target of nearly zero energy buildings (nZEBs).
