Abstract:Many studies have demonstrated that the design of structures in the region through the uniform hazard principle does not guarantee the uniform collapse risk. Even in those regions with similar PGAs corresponding to the same mean return period, the seismic risk in terms of failure probability will be significantly different due to the structural capacity uncertainty. In this paper, the newly introduced method, known as risk targeting, is being explored in Spain using the recently updated seismic hazard map. Sin… Show more
