“…mean (µ), standard deviation (σ) and coefficient of determination (R 2 ) -of each lognormal fragility function, fitting discrete points from damage probability matrices through the least squares technique. To evaluate progressive collapse fragility, several thousands of structural prototypes for each building class were randomly generated on the basis of statistics and probability distributions for each RV, as specified in Section 3, and their capacity was estimated by means of classical fiber force-based [51] FE approaches commonly adopted in earthquake [46,48,50,52] and progressive collapse analysis [11, 12, 17, 19, 25, 29-32, 35, 40]. To this aim, pushdown simulation techniques [11,17,18,23,24,31] rather than IDA procedures [19,26,40] were implemented and the downward load on beams (Q b ) was assumed as reference IM.…”
