The aim of the study is to develop the fragility curves for high rise, low rise concrete moment
resisting frame building. fragility curves provide the conditional probability of structure response when earth quack
load as a fraction on ground motion intensity or another parameter. seismic fragility curves are used for the preearthquake planning and post-earth quack program and also retrofitting program. The objective of study is
the reliability assessment of the case study for the building to earth quack loading. through the development of
fragility curves. in fragility evaluation for first time and demonstrate its computational efficiency compare to
computationally intensive Monte Carlo method. fragility curve of an RC frame is developed using high dimensional
modal representation (HDMR) response surface method. There are also other simplified approaches which are
computationally easy for fragility curve development. Cornell proposed such a simplified method which assumes a
power law model between the damage parameter and intensity measure of earthquake.
