Overview
...
This page will build upon the example presented that is presented in the Building Fragility page. Now that we have a building fragility curve ingested into MAEviz, we need to tell MAEviz how to map that fragility curve to buildings. What we will learn in this section is:
- How to create a building fragility mapping file
- How to ingets a building fragility mapping file
Create Fragility Mapping
This section will require a very basic understanding of XML and is something that we can help the user with putting together if you contact us by email. The basic concept behind the fragility mapping is to tell MAEviz which fragilities should be used with which "objects". In the case of a building dataset, which fragilities should be mapped to which buildings. The mapping file allows you to use a specific set of rules to map fragilities to buildings (e.g. if a building has a structure type S1 and has 6 stories, use fragility curve with ID SF_S1_1).
