Seismic Fragility Assessment for Reinforced Concrete High-Rise Buildings

In contrast to the worldwide rapid growth of high-rise buildings, no probabilistic assessment procedures have been proposed or developed for seismic risk evaluation of this special building group. The new purpose of this report is to provide the earthquake engineering community with an integrated probabilistic seismic fragility assessment framework and a reference application for this special building population.National Science Foundation EEC-9701785published or submitted for publicatio
