Seismic Damage, HAZUS, FEMA-P58
Seismic damage predictions can be an important key parameter for asset managers and engineers to increase the general life safety of a given building. One of the most useful and unique features of the Sensequake approach is the ability to directly predict damage levels of structures from sensing tests....

Seismic Evaluations, Performance-based
The issue of seismic vulnerability assessment and rehabilitation of underperforming existing buildings is a very important and complex problem, especially in seismic-prone areas for buildings that were constructed before modern seismic codes...
Key terms
Green, Adaptive Reuse, Retrofit
Environmental consciousness is playing an ever growing role in all professional fields. As support increases, public policies encouraging the implementation of green initiatives to lower global carbon emissions become implemented worldwide. ...

Modelling, Seismic Retrofit, Seismic Demands
Bridges are assets that are subject to not only varying loads on a daily basis but are also highly susceptible to seismic loading in the event of an earthquake. Additionally, bridges tend to be post-disaster structures and need to be operational at all times...
Bridge Seismic Assessment
The type and extent of damage that a component will experience is uncertain. Component fragility functions are statistical distributions that indicate the conditional probability of incurring damage at a given value of demand. Fragility functions are assumed to be lognormal distributions...
