3 Building damage in Mashiki Town April 16 3

4 Background Empirical fragility curves developed from the 1995 Kobe earthquake have been widely used in Japan. But 23 years have passed since the event. Significant building damages were caused in the April 2016 Kumamoto earthquake, and the Mashiki Town Government carried out the unified damage assessment for all the buildings in the town. Objective of the Research To analyze the building damage data in Mashiki Town compiled by the town government To develop fragility curves considering the structural material and construction period 4

18 Conclusions Building damage data surveyed by Mashiki Town Government were analyzed with respect to the structural material and construction period. The damage ratios of buildings in Mashiki Town were similar levels with those in Nada Ward due the 1995 Kobe earthquake. Fragility curves were developed for wooden buildings for different construction periods corresponding the revisions of seismic code in Japan. The developed curves are recommended to use for damage assessment of future earthquakes in Japan. 18
