About this document
Post-Earthquake Bridge Safety Assessment by gianninatore is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document proposes a procedure to evaluate the risk of collapse for structures damaged by an earthquake when considering potential aftershocks. It involves: 1. Creating fragility curves before an earthquake to model damage from main shocks and aftershocks. 2. Inspecting structures after an earthquake to observe actual damage. 3. Updating the fragility curves using Bayesian analysis to incorporate observed damage into risk calculations. An application to a highway bridge is presented to demonstrate
