To Study of the Parameters of Earthquake Seismic Vulnerability and Seismic Hazards

Rishi Sharma

Abstract

This paper defines seismic risk, vulnerability assessment of building is from all three variables, the one that assumes great importance not only because of its obvious physical consequences in the occurrence of a seismic event, but because it is the potential aspect, for which the engineering research can intervene, improve and even control seismic behavior of existing buildings, reducing the level of vulnerability and consequently the level of physical damage, life loss and economical loss. This paper also discussed the earthquake intensity scale. The main purpose of this paper is to discuss the vulnerability assessment methodologies, particularly the first level approaches, by presenting a proposed method which determines previously the level of vulnerability, only then measuring physical damage and its relationship to seismic intensity. It is presented and discussed the strategy and proposed methodology adopted for the vulnerability assessment and damage.
