Abstract

This study focus on derivation of such fragility curves using Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymers (CFRP) technologies retrofitted conventional reinfored concrete (RC) factory buildings. A set of random earthquake waves which compatible with the response spectrum of major history earthquake waves in China are created. Dynamic analysis is used to compute the random sample of frames. Difference of stochastic damage scatter diagrams in two directions of buildings is considered. Seismic fragility of CFRP-reinforced industrial frames is lower than unreinforced buildings obviously, and seismic capability of frames using CFRP technologies is enhanced especially under major earthquake.
