(a) Expected loss at different levels <strong>of</strong> intensity, (b) dispersion <strong>of</strong>loss at different levels <strong>of</strong> intensity, (c) building loss curve.Figure 6 presents examples <strong>of</strong> each <strong>of</strong> the correlation at each <strong>of</strong> the above threelevel. Figure 6a shows how the correlation between different types <strong>of</strong> EDP varies asthe ground motion intensity increase. Shown in Figure 6b is an example <strong>of</strong> the jointprobability distribution <strong>of</strong> two components being at different damage states. Figure 6cshows the correlation between repair costs for a column and a beam-columnconnection.3.6 Building Loss EstimationFigure 7a presents the variations <strong>of</strong> the expected loss at different levels <strong>of</strong> intensity,E[L T |IM], estimated for the case study building. It can be seen that for this buildinglosses rapidly increase at small levels <strong>of</strong> ground motion intensity. Figure 7b presentsthe variations <strong>of</strong> the dispersion <strong>of</strong> the loss <strong>of</strong> the building with increasing level <strong>of</strong>ground motion intensity for two cases: when losses in individual components areassumed to be correlated and when they are assumed non-correlated. It can be seenthat correlation has significant effects on the uncertainty <strong>of</strong> the loss. For example, atS d =20 cm assuming that the losses are uncorrelated leads to an underestimation <strong>of</strong>25% <strong>of</strong> the dispersion <strong>of</strong> the loss.The loss curve for the case study building is shown in Figure 7c where it can beseen that losses smaller than $1,000,000 have relatively high mean annual frequencies<strong>of</strong> exceedance.4. LOSS DEAGGREGATIONSimilarly to seismic hazard deaggregation (McGuire, 1995) building losses can alsobe disaggregated. In particular, it is interesting to investigate the ground motionintensities that most contribute to expected annual losses in a building. Figure 8provides three examples <strong>of</strong> loss deaggregation. Figure 8a presents the contribution <strong>of</strong>collapse and non-collapse expected loss to the total loss at different levels <strong>of</strong> intensity.It can be seen in the figure that at small levels <strong>of</strong> intensity, (S d
