Abstract
This study proposes a decision-making methodology for determining whether to retrofit or demolish earthquake damaged buildings. The methodology compares the Strength of retrofitting with the strength of constructing a new building of equivalent functionality. By considering factors such as retrofit strength, new construction capacity, and depreciation of capital, this approach provides a structural safety perspective. The methodology involves identifying structural damages, evaluating retrofit strength, and comparing them with the capacity of demolishing the old building and constructing a new one. The study also incorporates the expected lifespan of both retrofitted and new buildings. This project focuses on studying the lifespan of retrofitted structures compared to new buildings, analyzing the stability strength of existing structures, and evaluating the effectiveness of retrofitting measures in enhancing structural strength.
