Earthquake Loss Estimation for Reinforced Concrete Buildings: Some Problems
Capacity spectrum procedures developed for the assessment and strengthening of existing buildings have become the basis of methods for estimating potential post-earthquake losses which are today widely used in the insurance industry, and for urban risk mitigation programmes. The areas to which these methods are applied often contain (or largely consist of) reinforced concrete apartment building...
متن کاملSensitivity of the Earthquake Response of Tall Steel Moment Frame Buildings to Ground Motion Features
The seismic response of two tall steel moment frame buildings and their variants is explored through parametric nonlinear analysis using idealized sawtooth-like ground velocity waveforms, with a characteristic period (T ), amplitude (peak ground velocity, PGV ), and duration (number of cycles, N ). Collapse-level response is induced only by long-period, moderate to large PGV ground excitation. ...
متن کاملImproving Loss Estimation for Woodframe Buildings
This report documents Tasks 4.1 and 4.5 of the CUREE-Caltech Woodframe Project. It presents a theoretical and empirical methodology for creating probabilistic relationships between seismic shaking severity and physical damage and loss for buildings in general, and for woodframe buildings in particular. The methodology, called assembly-based vulnerability (ABV), is illustrated for 19 specific wo...
متن کاملThe Effect of Local Damage on Energy Absorption of Steel Frame Buildings During Earthquake
Progressive collapse is a kind of failure in which whole or large part of a structure collapse when a local damage occurs and distributes to other parts. Many researchers focus on the column removal analysis and study of the structure behavior under effect of gravity loads, so these investigations are mostly carried out on the tall building. Earthquake inspections indicate structural element ca...
متن کاملEarthquake Loss Estimation Including Transportation Network Damage
Large earthquakes have the potential of causing extensive damage and enormous economic losses. These losses are primarily attributable to the reduction in functionality of various facilities in the affected region and the rebuilding costs, and can be reduced through strategic preand post-earthquake decisions. This thesis describes an integrated methodology to estimate losses due to scenario ear...
