Frontiers of Structural and Civil Engineering 2017, Volume 11, Issue 2,   Pages 169-186 doi: 10.1007/s11709-017-0385-y

Abstract: Fragility curves are commonly used in civil engineering to assess the vulnerability of structures toThe classical approach relies on assuming a lognormal shape of the fragility curves; it is thus parametricIn this paper, we introduce two non-parametric approaches to establish the fragility curves without employingAs an illustration, we compute the fragility curves for a three-storey steel frame using a large number

Seismic fragility assessment of revised MRT buildings considering typical construction changes

Frontiers of Structural and Civil Engineering 2020, Volume 14, Issue 1,   Pages 241-266 doi: 10.1007/s11709-019-0560-4

Abstract: The present study investigates the vulnerability assessment of the prototype revised Mandatory Rule of Thumb (MRT) buildings initially designed and detailed for three storeys bare frame building; later modified through variable number of storeys (three, four, and five) and different arrangement of infill walls (bare frame, soft-storey, irregular infilled, and fully infilled). The application of infill walls increases the fundamental frequencies, stiffness, and maximum strength capacity, but reduces the deformation capability than the bare frame building. The vulnerability was also reduced through infill walls, where the probability of exceeding partial-collapse and collapse damage reduced by 80% and 50%, respectively. Furthermore, the increased in storeys (three to five) also increases the failure probability, such that partial-collapse and collapse for fully infilled increases by almost 55% and 80%, respectively. All obtained results and discussions concluded that the structural sections and details assigned for MRT building is not sufficient if considered as bare frame and soft-storey. And increase in number of storeys causes building highly vulnerable although the infill walls were considered.

Frontiers of Structural and Civil Engineering 2007, Volume 1, Issue 3,   Pages 267-273 doi: 10.1007/s11709-007-0034-y

Abstract: The risk is quantified by a procedure on the basis of a numerical determination of the fragility curvesThe analytical fragility curves were obtained specifically, using both Capacity Spectrum Method (CSM)The structural fragility curves developed by CSM method can help make the structural analysis simpleFragility curves are powerful tools for use in performance-based seismic bridge design.
