Probabilistic hazard
Run building damage analysis

4. How to create a scenario

5. Create New Scenario Select File > New Scenario
Where it says Name enter Tutorial Scenario
Leave the rest as default values
Click Next

6. Create New Scenario – Region of Interest
Where it says Country select United States of America
Find Tennessee state and expand it
Find Shelby county and select it
Make sure that you select Shelby county only (not Tennessee state)
Click Next

7. Create New Scenario – Default Sets
Select Ergo Beta 1
Click Finish

8. Tutorial Scenario

9. Tutorial Scenario (2)
You can check the box to not show render controls in the future
Click OK to close the 2D Renderer Controls dialog box
3 views should be open

Catalog view

10. Scenario View Region of Interest List of Mappable data (map layers)
List of non-mappable data: tabular data
List of executed analysis
Imaginations unbound

11. Exercise
Create new scenario

12. How to Create Local Data Repository

13. Data Repository
Data repository stores inventory, hazard, fragility, fragility mapping, default sets, etc.
Initially, you have two repositories:
Ergo-EQ public repository (read-only)
Sample data that you can test/run the analysis
Datasets from MAE center
Local Cache
Repository stores the temporary caches (managed by the software)

14. Local Data Repository
Similar to the Ergo Public Repository except data and metadata will be stored on local disk
Allows working offline
Can publish local data to remote data store and vice verse

15. Creating Local Repository (1)
Click New Repository button

16. Creating Local Repository (2)
Select Local Repository as a repository type
Click Next

17. Creating Local Repository (3)
Type Tutorial Repo as a repository name
Select the location (folder) of your repository (i.e. D:\tutorial)
Click Finish
We will ingest (store) data for this tutorial

18. Exercise Create your local repository
Copy data from Ergo-EQ repository to local repository
Browse the local repository via File explorer and see the folder structure of local repository.

19. How to Create Seismic Hazard

20. Seismic Hazards You can create seismic hazards by Attenuation function
Probabilistic data from USGS (Hazard map)

21. By Using Attenuation (1)
Run “Create Scenario Earthquake” with following steps:
Right click on Tutorial Scenario and select Execute Analysis
Expand Hazard and select “Create Scenario Earthquake”
Click Finish

22. Creating Scenario Earthquake
Click Here
Builds User Interface
Imaginations unbound

23. By Using Attenuation (2)
Click on the redbox
For Result Name specify scen-eq
Leave the rest as default values
Click Execute

24. Scenario Earthquake
Click on “Tutorial Scenario (2D)” tab to see the result
Expand the scenario and the scen-eq to see the legend

25. Probabilistic Hazard
You can ingest the USGS probabilistic hazard map for your hazard
Since it covers entire US, we downloaded and cropped the data around Shelby county.
We will ingest the prepared data into your local repository

26. Ingesting Probabilistic Hazard (1)
If you haven’t download the training data, please download the data at
Unzip the file (training-data.zip)
Right-click on Tutorial Repo
Select Ingest Dataset

27. Ingesting Probabilistic Hazard (2)
Select Raster as a file type
Click Next

28. Ingesting Probabilistic Hazard (3)
Select Raster file (uspga250_clip_asc.asc) you unzipped
Click Next

29. Ingesting Probabilistic Hazard (3)
Select Probabilistic Hazard as a data type
Click Next

30. Ingesting Probabilistic Hazard (3)
Type pga as hazard
Select Ground Motion in G as a unit
Type 0 for period
Click Next

31. Ingesting Probabilistic Hazard (3)
Select your repository (Tutorial Repo)
Type pga 2 percent in 50 year
Type 1 for version #
Click Finish

32. Ingesting Probabilistic Hazard (3)
Expand your repository to see the dataset
Drag & Drop the dataset (pga 2 percent in 50 year) to your scenario (Tutorial scenario) or to the map view

33. Two Hazards
Now you have two seismic hazards (deterministic and probabilistic) in your scenario
Expand your scenario to see these datasets
You can turn on/off visibility of the layer by right-click on the dataset and select Toggle Visibility

34. Running Building Damage Analysis

35. Run Building Damage Analysis
Right click on Tutorial Scenario and select Execute Analysis
Expand Building and select Structural Damage
Click Finish

36. Building Damage Analysis
Click Here
Builds User Interface
Search for Dataset
Create Dataset

37. Add Required Inputs - Buildings
Where it says Result Name enter Building Damage
Where it says Buildings click the Search button
Select Shelby County RES3 and click Finish
It may take a few seconds to load the dataset depending on your internet connection

38. Add Required Inputs - Hazard
Where it says Hazard click the Search button
Select scen-eq (the hazard you created before) and click Finish

39. Execute Building Damage
Click on Advanced Parameters
Notice all required values filled in from default set
Analysis is ready
Click Execute

40. Exercise Open Structural Damage analysis under Building
Set inputs for Structural Damage analyses
Execute Analyses

41. 2D Map View

Hazard Map

42. Building Damage Table Right click on Building Damage
Select Show Attribute Table

43. Exercise
View Building Damage Attribute Table

44. Change Layer Style
Right click on Building Damage and select Change Layer Style
Under Ranged Style, locate the Number of Classes field and select 7
Click Apply Style

45. Exercise
Change the layer style by increasing number of classes

46. Exercise
Execute Building Structural Damage analysis with probabilistic hazard dataset you ingested (pga 2 percent in 50 year)
Result name: Building Damage 2
Buildings: Shelby County RES3
Hazard: pga 2 percent in 50 year
