Field Name | Field Description | Field Type | Acceptable Values | Informational |
---|---|---|---|---|
ID | Unique numeric identifier in the fragility dataset | Integer | N/A | No |
Author | Identifies the person(s) who provided each fragility set. | String | N/A | Yes |
Structure Type | Structure Type this fragility curve is designed for | String | N/A | Yes |
Description | A textual description providing information about the derivation of this fragility curve set | String | N/A | Yes |
Ground Motions | Ground motion records used for time-history analyses when constructing fragilities | String | N/A | Yes |
Code | Design code for the fragility set | String | low - no retrofit, seat extender, steel jacket, Restrainer cables, Shear Key, Elastomeric Bearing | Yes |
Damage Type | The type of damage type this fragility represents | String | Structural | Yes |
Demand Type | The demand type required by the fragility, can include the period if applicable (e.g. 0.2 Sa ) | String | PGA, PGV, PGD, Sa, Sd, Sv | No |
Demand Units | The units of the demand type | String | g (typically), could be other values if another demand type is specified | No |
Limit States | The limit states of the fragility curves, Ergo expects 4 limit states. This tells Ergo how many fragility curves to expect. | String | Slight: Moderate: Extensive: Complete | No |
Equation Type | The fragility equation type | Integer | 1 - Lognormal distribution, 2 - Normal Distribution | No |
Parameters | The number of fragility parameters present (should be 2 parameters per fragility, median and beta) | Integer | N/A | No |
Median0 | First fragility median value | Double | N/A | No |
Beta0 | First fragility beta value | Double | N/A | No |
Median1 | Second fragility median value | Double | N/A | No |
Beta1 | Second fragility beta value | Double | N/A | No |
Median2 | Third fragility median value | Double | N/A | No |
Beta2 | Third fragility beta value | Double | N/A | No |
After the Parameters field, specify the fragility parameters for each curve. Each curve should have a pair of parameters and the keyword for the fields are the words Median and Beta followed by a number that specifies which curve the parameter belongs to. Number should start at zero so if we have 2 fragility curves, the following 4 additional fields would be in the file:
