Abstract
Recent earthquakes have clearly shown the high vulnerability of existing reinforced concrete (RC) structures. There is a crucial need to find cost‐effective and efficient strategies and methods to strengthen a large number of buildings (i.e., at a regional scale) before future major earthquakes occur. A viable strategy to prevent potential damage caused by earthquakes could be to selectively upgrade local capacity of individual structural components. In the aftermath of the 6 April 2009 L'Aquila earthquake, local retrofit work based on the use of fiber polymer reinforcement (FRP) were executed to increase the seismic capacity of lightly damaged public and private buildings. According to theoretical analyses carried out on six reinforced concrete (RC) school buildings in L'Aquila, a seismic safety level of about 60% of that requested in the design of a new building can be achieved in most cases by FRP‐based strengthening of exterior joints.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
