The latest are of a major importance before any technical decision is taken, such as reinforcement or demolition. For this purpose, vulnerability curves for masonry constructions using vulnerability index were developed. Within this paper, the state of the existing structures is assessed using "the vulnerability index” method. This method allows the classification of masonry buildings taking into account both, structural and non structural parameters, considered to be ones of the main parameters governing the vulnerability of the structure. Vulnerability curves for Algerian unreinforced masonry structures (URM) using vulnerability index are constructed by the use of a translation method, allowing the determination of the vulnerability curves from one region to another. Analytical functions linking the mean damage ratio to the seismic intensity and the vulnerability index are given. The obtained vulnerability curves were compared to those provided by Risk-UE project.
