Vulnerability Assessment of a Reinforced Concrete Building Frame
Severe earthquakes are considered as a major hazard with a potential to cause substantial physical losses, economic losses and casualties. At the same time due to population inversion, new settlements are compelled to find their space in higher earthquake-prone zones. The probability of such terrible earthquake events cannot be ruled out for the near future. It is, therefore, quantifying risk and developing strategies which are vital for the disaster mitigation. In this study, a general procedure of seismic vulnerability assessment based on the fragility function is presented. The fragility function corresponding to seismic performance of reinforced concrete frame is obtained and presented as tool for vulnerability assessment. The work presented here aims to direct a quick and simplistic approach towards vulnerability assessment of RC framed building with the help of fragility curves.
