Development of seismic fragility surfaces for reinforced concrete buildings by means of nonlinear time-history analysis.

Fragility curves are generally developed using a single parameter to relate the level of shaking to the expected structural damage. The main goal of this work is to use several parameters to characterize the earthquake ground motion. The fragility curves will, therefore, become surfaces when the gro...
