The seismic vulnerability assessment hospital as is one necessities which have a critical role recovery period following earthquakes. This research aims to study detail extend present knowledge Rizgary public city, was constructed before releasing provisions region. ETABS software employed conduct Eigenvalue analyses, nonlinear static 120 incremental dynamic analyses; furthermore, actual response evaluated by considering possible irregularities both directions effect pounding. outcomes indicate that poor performance under anticipated In addition, existing combination pounding model increases load. A suitable strengthening strategy also recommended.
