ESTUDIOS DE VULNERABILIDAD SOBRE EL FONDO HABITACIONAL
Abstract
Los estudios de vulnerabilidad del fondo habitacional son una herramienta importante en la toma de decisiones por las autoridades locales, respecto a la intervención en el patrimonio construido y la disminución de la
vulnerabilidad física del mismo. Este artículo aborda un estudio realizado
para una de las localidades más dañadas en los últimos veinticinco años por ciclones tropicales en la región central de Cuba. El empleo de un Sistema de Información Geográfica, la definición de los vientos predominantes de huracanes y de diferentes niveles de vulnerabilidad a escala urbana y para los inmuebles, establece prioridades respecto a la rehabilitación constructiva del
fondo habitacional.
Palabras clave: vulnerabilidad, ciclón tropical, vientos, viviendas, daños.
