Abstract:In the present paper, Fragility Curves (FCs) of Reinforced Concrete (RC) structural types representative of the existing Italian building stock have been derived through an analytical approach. The proposed methodology is based on Non-Linear Dynamic Analyses (NLDAs) encompassing all the steps required to bring about reliable as well realistic fragility results. First, prototype building types have been selected by considering the main attributes affecting the seismic vulnerability of existing RC buildings, tha… Show more
