Comparative Seismic Risk Analysis of Existing Low-Rise RC Buildings Retrofitted by Metallic Energy Dissipating Devices
Existing non-seismically detailed low-rise RC buildings have higher seismic risks that are dependent on their seismic capacities and demand of building sites. Seismic risk analysis can be performed considering probabilistic characteristic of the structural damage. Structural damage is more accurately quantified by the damage indices than by a single engineering parameter. This study carries out comparative seismic risk analysis of a prototype building with and without metallic energy dissipating devices. Based on the probability distribution of damage index, it is demonstrated that the application of well-designed MEDDs to low-rise RC building can reduce its potential seismic risk.
