Abstract
The 26th of November earthquake in northwest Albania affected at least 10 of the country’s 61 municipalities, including the two most populous, urbanized and developed cities Tirana and Durrës. This was the strongest earthquake in Albania for the last 40 years and the worldwide deadliest earthquake for 2019. The Earthquake Engineering Field Investigation Team (EEFIT) sent a team to the affected region during the immediate aftermath of the event (13th to 18th December). The mission objectives were to observe the characteristic damage patterns in the main structural typologies of the Albanian residential building stock and to assess possible links between the observed damage patterns with code and construction practice deficiencies.
