Seismic Vulnerability Assessment of RC Structures: A Review
Abstract
Earthquake induced damage has been increased over the last few years. Gujrat (2001), Sumatra (2004) & Haiti (2010) are burning example of devastating damage due to earthquake. The collapse of engineered and non-engineered buildings during an earthquake is the chief contributor to the loss of lives and injuries to people. A state-of-the-art review of the seismic vulnerability assessment of RC structures is presented in this paper. The review includes the history of vulnerability assessment, basic concept of vulnerability assessment, various screening procedure, development of screening techniques, advancement of technology etc. This paper also focuses on some recent vulnerability assessment techniques that would lead to identify buildings which might pose in case of an earthquake. Based on the scope, the future work on the topic is outlined.
