Another earthquake causes new collapses at school. There is no peace to amateur where at 15:07 today, Sunday, August 28, seismologists of ‘ National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology registered a new shock magnitude 3.7, the strongest of the day, which caused further damage to the wing of the main entrance of the school Romulus Capranica. The building has become the symbol earthquake that on the night of August 24 has destroyed the common amateur , Accumoli and Arquata del Tronto and is already at the center of the news for the renovation of 2012 – carried out by a company linked to a group already banned for mafia – and new urgent work that had to be made by a firm already under investigation in the investigation for the Aquila earthquake: the earthquake, however, came first.

The INGV working to identify the fault – Meanwhile, the technicians are trying INGV to identify the fault (ie the fracture of rock) responsible for the earthquake. Intervene as early as possible is very important to understand what happened during a earthquake of this magnitude . For example, the distribution of aftershocks that occurred after the main shock permit to develop the characteristics of the faults, and those that take place in the early hours are more clearly linked to the fault itself. In the hours and days after you activate other faults, seismicity starts to affect a Volume crustal more extended and it becomes increasingly difficult to identify what is the fault manager earthquake. It is for this reason that mobile seismic network installed in fifteen new stations with seismometers and accelerometers which, together with the permanent seismic stations of the National Seismic Network, allow you to monitor and better study the phenomenon in progress. Until now have been registered altogether 1,820 aftershocks to the 6.0 magnitude earthquake occurred at 3:36 am on August 24th.
