    INTRODUCTION

    In this project we study the theory behind the development of Hazard Maps, specifically

    Fragility Maps and Shake Maps. We delve first on the fundamentals we need to know for the

    generation of this maps, then we study the theory of Fragility Curves and Fragility Maps and

    the theory behind Shake Maps, and finally we apply this knowledge to our Home Country

    and develop its respective maps.

    PRELIMINARIES

    Hazard Maps

    A Hazard Map highlights areas that are

    affected or vulnerable of a particular

    hazard. They help use describe

    qualitatively and quantitatively a specific

    area in order to assess its vulnerability toa particular hazard.

    The first type of Hazard Map well be studying are the so called Fragility Maps.

    Fragility Maps show the vulnerability of

    areas in the map with respect to a given

    hazard.

    Some applications for Fragility Curves and

    Fragility Maps are:

    Probabilistic Risk Assessment

    Construction Code Development

    Urban Planning

    Loss Estimation Retrofitting

    Shake Maps

    With Fragility Curves at your disposal for each of this building types and damages states, and

    also knowing the expense for repairing this damages on the buildings, we can estimate the

    expected annual or monthly loss.

    The other Hazard Map well be studying are Shake Masp.

    Shake Maps are a representation of ground shaking produced by an earthquake. Shake Maps

    focuses on the ground-shaking produced by the earthquake, rather than the parameters

    describing the earthquake source.

    Some applications of ShakeMaps are:

    Seismological Research

    Earthquake Scenarios Preparedness

    Emergency Response Loss Estimation

    FUNDAMENTALS

    Fragility

    It is a measure of part of the Vulnerability of a structure to loads induced by a hazard.

    Mathematically, fragility can expressed by:

    Where:

    Pf is the failure probability for a specific damage state

    Sd is the structural demand, and

    Sc is the structural capacity.

    Fragility of a Structure can be affected by the following aspects:

    Type of Hazard (EQ, Wind, Flood,...)

    Strength of Hazard

    Structural Type

    Construction Materials

    Soil-Structure Interaction

    Risk = Fun ( Hazard, Vulnerability, Cost )

    Performance

    Hammurabi, King of Babylon once said:

    Article 229: The builder has built a house for a man and his

    work is not strong and if the house he has built falls in and

    kills a householder, that builder shall be slain.

    This is a performance statement. He addressed structural

    safety entirely in terms of user requirements, did not statehow to construct the building, and did not refer to building

    structure or building materials.

    Performance-Based Design

    The Performance approach consists of working in terms of Ends rather than Means. It isconcerned with what a building is required to do, and not with how it is to be constructed.

    The two main important ingredients in a performance-based design are:

    - Capacity

    Performance-Based Design Ingredients:

    - Demand

    With this two parameters we follow with the determination of thePerformance Point.

    The we proceed with the check of Structural Behavior under the defined Seismic Action and

    your Defined Limit States.

    Capacity

    Is a measure of the maximum load, or any other parameter, a structure can sustain for it to

    achieve a predefined damage state. This will depend on the structural system, materials and

    other structural attributes that affect the resistance of a structure.

    Using Pushover Analysis we can obtain the Capacity of a Structure. The procedure consists on

    applying either a small lateral displacement or force to the structure, iteratively increasingthis amount, re-analizing the structure at each step, until the predefined damage state is

    obtained.

    Demand

    Its a measure of the loads, or any other parameter, that a structure would be subjected to by

    a given hazard. It will depend on characteristics of the hazard and site conditions, which

    affect the overall effect on the structure. Seismic Demand is represented by using Response

    Spectra.

    A Response Spectra is a plot of the peak or steady-state response (displacement, velocity or

    acceleration) of a series of buildings of varying Natural Frequency or Period, forced into

    motion by the same base Ground Motion.

    Probability

    Inprobability theory,a probability density function (pdf), or density of acontinuous random

    variable,is afunction that describes the relative likelihood for this random variable to take on

    a given value.

    In probability theory and statistics, the cumulative distribution function (CDF), or just

    distribution function, describes the probability that a real-valuedrandom variable X with a

    givenprobability distribution will be found at a value less than or equal to x. Intuitively, it is

    the "area so far" function of the probability distribution.

    FRAGILITY MAPS

    Fragility Curves

    By assuming material properties and certain other structural attributes that affect the overall

    Capacityof a structure, and with additional assumptions about the ground motion and site

    conditionsboth factors that affect the seismic Demand,we can deterministically calculate

    the performance of a structure.

    Naturally, values of these parametersare not exact they invariably have a

    measure of both randomness and

    uncertaintyassociated with them.

    When we take into account this

    probabilistic characteristics we generate

    what we know as Fragility Curves.

    Building Stock

    A Classification of the Building Stock

    needs to be made in order to develop

    their respective fragility curves.

    Classification can be made according to:

    Structural Type

    Building Purpose

    Building Quality

    Construction

    Now well see the process on developing a Fragility Curve and finally getting to the Fragility

    Maps. First lets take a look at a Building stock and what data is important to collect from

    them in order to develop fragility curves and get to the final destination of a fragility map.

    To begin with we need an area of study with a population of buildings.

    Then we need to classify these buildings according to some standardized classification

    and collect the data from the Building Stock. This classification can be the buildings

    general geometry (like in Fig.2.3), number of stories, building materials, quality or age,

    usage or purpose etc.

    With this a Fragility Curve is developed for each of this type of buildings, by using

    simulation procedures like the Monte-Carlo Simulation.

    Having the fragility curves we can obtain probability of occurrence of specific damage

    state for a specific hazard event, and therefore asses the vulnerability of the area for a

    specific hazard, like an earthquake or flooding.

    16 | P a g e

    Risk Projects: Hazard Maps Fragility Maps Shake

    The process of developing a fragility curve generally

    involves the following steps:

    1) Building Properties Selection2) Structure Idealization3) Inclusion of Structural Variability

    4) Pushover Analysis and Limit States Definitions5) Structural Analysis Numerical Simulation Run6) Data Fit to a Probability Distribution Function7) Which becomes the Fragility Curve

    The Numerical Simulation run of the Structural Analysis is an iterative procedure were the

    input of the structure is randomly generated according to stochastic parameter know of the

    hazards and construction materials of the building, like described on section1.4 of Numerical

    Simulation.

    SHAKE MAPS

    Shake Maps are a representation of ground shaking produced by an earthquake. Shake Maps

    focuses on the ground-shaking produced by the earthquake, rather than the parameters

    describing the earthquake source.

    Depending on distance from the earthquake, depth, rock and soil conditions at sites, and

    variations in the propagation of seismic waves from the earthquake due to complexities in

    the structure of the Earth's crust, it produces a range of ground shaking levels at sitesthroughout the region.

    Some areas of application for Shake Maps are:

    Seismological Research - Calibration of GMPE

    Earthquake Scenarios Preparedness

    Emergency Response

    Loss Estimation

    Ground Motion Prediction Equation (Attenuation Relation)

    Ground motion prediction equations are statistical models to predict ground shaking on a

    site. They can be developed for different tectonic regions (shallow crustal regions,

    subduction zones, intra-plate).

    Risk Projects: Hazard Maps Fragility Maps Shake

    The Attenuation Relation used in our region is the one proposed by Dahle.

    DAHLE

    Ycan be Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA).

    This model is the one applied for the stable tectonic region in Europe.

    According to some studies this Dahle model is the most adequate model to predict ground

    motion for the Central America region, therefore is the one we will be using.

    Sensors Data

    Sensors Data is prioritize over GMPE when

    calculating site Ground-Shaking (PGA), IF there is

    enough data available.

    Interpolation and Extrapolation Schemes must be

    implemented to calculate interior and exterior

    PGA values, respectively.

    Now well explain the step by step procedure for generating a Shake Map using critical

    earthquake scenarios for my Home Country.

    1) Earthquake Coordinates and Magnitude

    This would mean to locate and determine the Earthquakes Magnitude and Coordinates, if it

    event has just occurred, or to decide on the location and magnitude of the earthquake we

    would like to study.

    2) Calculate Sites PGA using aGMPE

    This would mean to locate and determine the Earthquakes Magnitude and Coordinates, if it

    event has just occurred, or to decide

    3) CalculateProbability of Exceedancefor each and every Site

    In the same way it is done for Fragility Maps we calculate the Probability of Exceedance of

    each site, using the sites PGA calculate in the previous step.

    4) Compile Data and Generate Shake Map
