FRAME V.1.0: A RAPID FRAGILITY-BASED SEISMIC RISK ASSESSMENT TOOL

This paper describes the software named FRAME – Fragility-based Rapid seismic Risk AssessMEnt – v.1.0. Its main objective is the worldwide assessment of structure-specific seismic risk, based on seismic hazard and fragility functions, for a number of structural typologies. To this aim, the software includes worldwide seismic hazard estimates, a literature-based expandable fragility curve inventory and damage-to-loss relationships, allowing to translate the structural damage into an expected loss for both direct damage and business interruption.
