# bimquake

[![DOI](https://zenodo.org/badge/1113759166.svg)](https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.18510523)

A Python package for earthquake resilience assessment of masonry buildings, integrating IFC (Industry Foundation Classes) building information models with seismic hazard analysis and structural evaluation.

- Website: [https://buildchain.ilab.sztaki.hu/](https://buildchain.ilab.sztaki.hu/)
- Source code: [https://github.com/TRACE-Structures/bimquake](https://github.com/TRACE-Structures/bimquake)
- Bug reports: [https://github.com/TRACE-Structures/bimquake/issues](https://github.com/TRACE-Structures/bimquake/issues)

## Overview

BIMQuake combines Building Information Modeling (BIM) with earthquake engineering to provide comprehensive seismic analysis capabilities. The package enables users to:

- Extract structural data from IFC building models
- Retrieve seismic hazard parameters based on geographic location
- Perform linear and non-linear static analysis for earthquake loading
- Evaluate wall safety factors and global vulnerability indexes
- Visualize building layouts and structural wall resistance
- Generate interactive maps and 2D floor plans

## Installation

```bash
pip install bimquake
```

## Features

### IFC Processing
- **Building Model Extraction**: Parse and process IFC files to extract structural elements (walls, slabs, columns)
- **Geometric Analysis**: Extract geometric properties, dimensions, and spatial relationships between model elements
- **Material Properties**: Retrieve material characteristics from IFC models
- **3D Visualization**: Generate meshes for 3D visualization of building components
- **Load analysis**: Combine vertical loads and calculate stresses on the walls

### Earthquake Hazard Analysis
- **Seismic Parameter Retrieval**: Get earthquake hazard parameters based on latitude/longitude coordinates
- **Italian Seismic Code**: Built-in support for Italian National Building Code (NTC2018) seismic hazard grid data
- **Return Period Analysis**: Calculate parameters for various return periods
- **Interactive Mapping**: Generate folium-based maps showing building location

### Structural Analysis
- **Linear Static Analysis**: Perform seismic analysis according to Italian building code (NTC2018)
- **Wall Resistance Calculation**: Evaluate structural wall capacity for different failure criteria (shear, bending in plane and out of plane)
- **Floor-by-Floor Analysis**: Analyze building response at each floor level
- **Failure Mechanism Visualization**: Visualize potential failure modes
- **Non-linear static analysis**: Perform analysis and evaluate global vulnerability on the Acceleration Displacement Response Spectra (ADRS) plane

## Core Components

### `eq_resilience_library`
Main module containing earthquake resilience analysis functions:
- `get_Parameters()`: Retrieve seismic hazard parameters
- `get_map()`: Generate interactive location map
- `run_linear_static_analysis()`: Perform linear static analysis
- `run_pushover_analysis()`: Perform pushover analysis
- `get_2D_layout()`: Generate 2D floor plan visualization
- `plot_wall_resistence()`: Visualize wall resistance and failure mechanisms

### `ifc_processing`
Subpackage for processing IFC building models:
- `building.py`: Main building model handler with `IfcObjectSet` class
- `wall.py`: Wall element extraction and analysis
- `slab.py`: Slab element extraction and analysis
- `IFC_objects.py`: Base IFC object definitions
- `simple_objects.py`: Simplified geometric representations

## Data Formats

### Input Excel File Format
The analysis requires building data in Excel format with the following sheets:
- **Data**: Building overview (floor heights and total floor weights)
- **Floor1, Floor2, ...**: Individual floor data including geometrical (height, length, orientation) and material (tensile strength, Poisson ratio, shear and elastic moduli) wall properties 

### IFC Requirements
- Compatible with IFC 2x3 and IFC 4 formats
- Requires structural elements to have properly defined geometry
- Material properties should be assigned to structural elements
- Loads should be assigned to slabs and other structural elements

## Current Limitations

- Seismic hazard data currently available only for Italy
- Analysis follows Italian building codes (NTC 2018)
