How seismic is Zone: zone 3
Medium-low seismicity: strong quakes are rare, but not impossible.
Official Civil Protection classification (upd. 2025), used for building codes.
Hazard describes the long-term expected shaking: it is not a forecast. Technical value: ag = 0.128 g (10% probability of exceedance in 50 years, rigid soil).
“Within 30 km”: epicentres less than 30 km from the centre of Zone. “In the town”: quakes whose nearest town to the epicentre is Zone.
