Damage potential and vulnerability functions of strategic buildings in the city of Algiers
Abstract The estimation of losses resulting from an earthquake requires that for each building class, the relationship between the intensity of ground shaking and damage degree must be known or developed. Potential earthquake damage to structures, human beings and personal property have been the scope of numerous studies. Different approaches have been employed so far to estimate earthquake casualties and damage. This paper describe the basic concept for development of analytical vulnerability functions based essentially on so called damage model which was performed from probabilistic studies on seismic capacity of existing buildings in the city of Algiers (Algeria). Regarding the developed model for assessing the seismic damage, vulnerability functions of specific losses (potential losses for a specific urban area in terms of meter square area of building slabs which may involve causalities) were developed in order to predict the expected seismic risk for a given ground motion scenario.
