| description abstract | Generally, in seismic retrofit design, seismic performance of a RC building can be upgraded to meet or exceed code requirements by upgrading the structural strength, ductility, or a combination of both. Except for safety, financial and environmental benefits of seismic retrofit investments are not considered in seismic retrofit design. However, financial and environmental benefits are very important information for decision making in seismic retrofit investments. In this work, a novel method for estimating seismic damage to an RC building is constructed based of the hazard curve of response spectral acceleration. Additionally, earthquakes are assumed to follow a Poisson process when analyzing the probability of a specified damage state within a specified service period and modeling expected costs caused by seismic damage. In addition to costs, | |
