Summary
Timber buildings show the best performance with a mean damage factor of 3.15 %
The simulation results show that the concrete buildings suffer a damage factor of 4.37 % on average
Masonry buildings show the worst performance with a mean damage factor of 8.42 %
ATC 33 damage probability matrices gave similar results as those obtained from damage data in South Iceland
Considering just one value of intensity for the whole town of Hverageði over-estimates the damage factor, almost by a factor of 2
Consideration of spatial variability of ground motion intensity gave results close to the actual damage observed after the Mw 6.3, 2008 Ölfus Earthquake
