碩士 === 國立成功大學 === 土木工程學系 === 105 === This study develops two probabilistic seismic assessment methods for non-structural components. These two methods that can be used to quantify seismic losses for target non-structural components are called performance assessment methods (1) and (2), respectively. Method (1) is based on methodology proposed by FEMA P-58: Seismic Performance Assessment of Buildings, while Method (2) combines the fragility analysis method of SPRA for nuclear power plant with the assessment process of FEMA P-58. The main difference between the two methods is the fragility demand parameters of the non-structural components. The former is based on the structural responses where components are mounted, while the latter is based on ground motion intensity. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed two methods, this study chooses four different non-structural components from an existing hospital, including: computed tomography, fire sprinkle water-pipe system, elevators and partition walls. The assessment results confirm that the two methods proposed in this study are able to estimate the seismic losses of the chosen non-structural components.
