Hello,
I am an engineer working for a consulting firm in Europe. I am assigned the task of coming up with fragility curves for road assets in an Eastern European country.
I have very little expertise in fragility curves. Of course we are not asked to develop our own fragility curves, but if we select generic ones I want to ensure they are selected in an informed and intelligent manner.
Has anyone ever been given a similar task? What is a good methodology for selecting generic fragility curves for road assets where the country has not developed this sort of technology before and has minimal post-disaster data (post-earthquake surveys for example)?
