Short summary
This paper presents a semi-quantitative assessment of the physical vulnerability of buildings to landslides, and quantitative landslide risk analysis computed as the product of the landslide hazard by the vulnerability and the economic value of the buildings. The work was developed for a Portuguese municipality (Loures). The highest risk was found for the landslides 3 m deep, because these landslides combine a relatively high frequency with a substantial potential damage.
