Description

Seismic performance and loss assessment of structural systems. Quantifying seismic hazard, seismic response, component damage, and component loss for specific structures as well as a probabilistic frameworks to account for uncertainties. All aspects of the course will focus on case-studies to illustrate the relevant theoretical details as well as the role of loss assessment in decision-making.

Prerequisites
