Abstract: Abstract An efficient methodology is explained to evaluate the robustness (variability of response) of an uncertain base-isolated building under various ground motions. It is well known that base-isolated buildings have large structural uncertainties due to wide variability of structural properties of base-isolation systems [1, 2]. The variability resulting from temperature and frequency dependences, manufacturing errors, and aging effect may be a representative one.
