Abstract

In these book, fragility curves are defined as the probability of reaching or exceeding a specific damage state under earthquake excitation. The fragility curves are established to provide a prediction of potential damage during an earthquake. The fragility function is also directly used to reduce damage cost and loss of life during a seismic event. Therefore, fragility curves can be used as a decision-making tool for both pre- and post-earthquake situations. Moreover, these curves may help develop future local code provisions.
