frbca
`{frbca}` is an R package supporting economic evaluation of functional recovery design for buildings. The goal of frbca is to conduct benefit-cost analysis (BCA) for buildings archetypes designed for functional recovery. The inputs include:
- Expected Annualized Losses (EALs) for (i) a baseline (code-conforming) design and (ii) recovery-based design interventions
- Structural and nonstructural costs for both (i) and (ii)
- A list of analysis parameters, including discount rate, time horizon, and economic analysis parameters such as business income
For more details, see:
