Several approaches have been proposed through the years to quantify resilience for various infrastructure systems, but quantifying the resilience of buildings, and groups of buildings, remains challenging. Here, research was conducted to investigate the effectiveness of three different approaches proposed to quantify resilience, based on results from performance-based assessments. The proposed approaches use repair costs, occupancy levels, and asset values as the functionality measures to quantify resilience. Resilience indexes are quantified for four different example buildings using the three approaches. Performance-based assessments of the buildings are performed following the procedures of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) P-58 document using an intensity-based method and the simplified analysis procedures. The proposed methodology by the Resilience-based Earthquake Design Initiative Rating System (REDi), to account for downtimes due to delays calculated from the FEMA P-58 assessments, are incorporated in the resilience quantification for the four example buildings. The delays due to downtimes are included in the computation of resilience index considering two scenarios based on different impeding factors. Resilience is quantified for a range of different spectral accelerations. Casualties for the range of spectral accelerations considering different collapse modes for the four example buildings are presented. The individual results for each building are also combined using a weight-based approach to quantify the resilience index for an archetype city block. The influence of contractor availability and collapse probability in the resilience indexes for a set of buildings is investigated. The findings presented here are useful both from the perspective of quantifying the resilience of a community on the basis of its building assets, as well as for possible inclusion into broader integrated framework that aims to quantify community resilience.","**To request an accessible version of the file(s) associated with this item, contact library@buffalo.edu.
