Framework for resilience analysis of EU buildings

Abstract

This report summarises the activities of the JRC institutional work package related to the resilience of the European building stock. It covers the fundamental components of seismic risk assessment studies, namely hazard (national design codes and recent research results), exposure (inventory of the European building stock) and vulnerability (fragility curves for reinforced concrete and masonry buildings). In addition, the report examines the resilience of the built environment with focus on the modelling of the post-event recovery process. Lastly, a workplan to integrate these components for the analysis of the resilience of the European building stock is put forward.JRC.E.4-Safety and Security of Building
