where f R ( IM ) is the probability density function of capacity in terms of IM
and H ( IM ) is the conventional hazard curve. This can be numerically com-
puted by Eq. [21.9] using the fragility and hazard curves. F R is the fragility
function developed for a damage state (e.g., cover-spalling or collapse) and
spectral acceleration, S a , is used as intensity measure, IM.

On the other hand, if some reasonable approximations are made, Eq. [21.8]
can be analytically integrated assuming that the IM values of capacity are
lognormally distributed and that the IM hazard curve can be approximated
by fi tting a straight line in the log-log space, H ( IM )
k 0 IM k , (Shome and
Cornell, 1999; Cornell et al. 2002). Based on these assumptions the integra-
tion in Eq. [21.8] will result in Eq. [21.10]:

Therefore, the mean annual rate of exceeding a damage state,
λ DS , can be
estimated using Eq. [21.10] given the median capacity of the structure at
the damage state, S C a50% and the total uncertainty,
β TOT , which are determined
through IDA. The values of k 0 and k in Fig. 21.11 are estimated as 2.59e-5
and 1.35, respectively, at T 1
1.09 s. The probability of exceeding a damage
state in the next T years can then be estimated using the Poisson distribu-
tion, given in Eq. [21.11].
