معرفی کتاب Comparison Of FEMA P-58 With Other Building Seismic Risk Assessment Methods
This report compares results from various seismic risk assessment methods for a set of reinforced concrete frame buildings, ranging from 4 to 20 stories and including both new and pre-1971 buildings. This study examines results from the new FEMA P-58 method and compares the results with three commonly used methods for seismic due-diligence risk assessments (TZ method, ST-Risk Degenkolb method, and ST-Risk Hazus method). For the buildings investigated in this report, the conclusions are that (a) the FEMA P-58 method gives similar results to other commonly used methods on average, (b) even though the results are similar on average, the FEMA P-58 method results vary more between buildings, since it has the ability to quantify the effects of building-specific (and site-specific) features to provide a more detailed risk assessment for the individual building (in contrast to giving result for a building class and adding modifiers), and that (c) FEMA P-58 also provides additional detailed building-specific risk information such as what specific components are expected to be damage and contribute most to losses, building repair time estimates, etc.
