Abstract

In many situations, the level of safety is established by following the guidelines set forth in rules or regulations. Engineers are accountable for giving quantitative estimates for different factors, particularly failure cost, when extra information is available, such as the owner's needs. By order of the Akimat of the city of Almaty, within 2017-2018, for the first time, a full certification of the housing stock of apartment buildings was carried out. 1847 multi-story frame buildings of various stories entered into the database. Based on the certification results, for the first time, quantitative estimates of the values of the probability of failure and reliability were obtained for frame buildings of various types. The recurrence of earthquakes is taken into account by the current

Summary

Introduction

Seismic codes were devised and refined as a result of large earthquakes that wreaked havoc in densely populated areas. These are often changed depending on new information obtained from previous earthquakes and study discoveries, and as a result, they are always changing. Seismic zones are areas on a map where earthquakes have historically occurred in clusters. Over the past 140 years, there have been three strong earthquakes with magnitudes 7-8 Vernenskoe in 1887, Chilikskoe in 1889, and Kebinskoe (Keminskoe) in 1911. In these conditions, the seismic safety of the population must be ensured
