ASSESSING BUILDING REPARABILITY AFTER DAMAGING EARTHQUAKES WITH A SUSTAINABLE PERFORMANCE BASED APPROACH


Abstract eng:
Building reparability after an earthquake is a central issue for a sustainable engineering. Effective policies concerning building reparability should account for building Initial Performance (IP) before an earthquake and of Performance Loss (PL) due to seismic damage, properly accounting of repair/strengthening costs. This paper presents a pushover based procedure for evaluating IP and PL and demonstrates its usability by means of a case study for an RC building. Moreover, preliminary estimation of damage-dependent reparation costs for the case study building shows the possibility of associating PL thresholds to reparability limit states.
