Comparison of Mainshock and Aftershock Fragility Curves Developed for New Zealand and U.S. Buildings
Seismic risk assessment involves the development of fragility functions to express the
relationship between ground motion intensity and damage potential. In evaluating the risk
associated with the building inventory in a region, it is essential to capture ‘actual’
characteristics of the buildings and group them so that ‘generic building types’ can be
generated for further analysis of their damage potential. Variations in building
characteristics across regions/countries largely influence the resulting fragility functions,
such that building models are unsuitable to be adopted for risk assessment in any other
region where a different set of building is present. In this paper, for a given building type
(represented in terms of height and structural system), typical New Zealand and US
building models are considered to illustrate the differences in structural model parameters
and their effects on resulting fragility functions for a set of main-shocks and aftershocks.
From this study, the general conclusion is that the methodology and assumptions used to
derive basic capacity curve parameters have a considerable influence on fragility curves.
