Description

<p>Yangon, the biggest city in Myanmar, has a population of 5.14 million resident stands in the vicinity of Sagaing fault. Considering the impact of past seismic activities in this region, it is important to develop and execute earthquake disaster risk reduction strategies by proper assessment of the current situation. To evaluate the seismic risk of Yangon city, Aung (2016）[1] developed fragility functions for the existing reinforced concrete buildings. However, the strength values which used in the fragility functions might differ from the actual concrete strengths. Therefore, this study mainly focuses on developing the revised fragility functions based on material testing and the field survey at construction site. In this paper show the results of some interviews about construction situation and pre-investigation of steels obtained from a construction site in Yangon.</p>
