Özet

The purpose of this study is to compare the damage probability of R/C frame buildings with different stiffness levels and hysteretic properties. The first building (Building A) is an R/C frame building and the latter one (Building B) is an R/C frame building with shear walls. The pushover curves of sample buildings were obtained via pushover analyses. Nonlinear time-history analyses of equivalent single degree of freedom systems were performed using bilinear hysteretic model and peak-oriented hysteretic model with stiffness – strength deterioration for each scaled elastic spectral displacement. The damage measure is maximum inter-story drift ratio and each performance level considered in this study has an assumed limit value of damage measure. Discrete damage probabilities were calculated using statistical methods for each considered performance level and elastic spectral displacement. Consequently, continuous fragility curves have been constructed based on the lognormal distribution assumption. Furthermore, the effect of hysteresis model parameters on the damage probability is investigated.
