In order to determine the effects of strong earthquakes for a given settlement, it is necessary to solve several tasks in a few stages. The first task is identification of the building stock for the surveyed area. The assessment of the effects of strong earthquakes is based on procedures for integration of seismic hazard and seismic vulnerability of the bearing structures of the building stock. The building stock is divided into three main groups, taking into account the specificity of the building and the available information on the function and occupancy of the buildings. The analyses are made for seismic excitation defined from seismic hazard analysis. On the basis of the collected information for the building stock and the analysis carried out, the assessment of direct damages and destruction is obtained. The distribution of the buildings, respectively by number and by total floor area, at the different damage levels is presented in graphical form. Economic losses are calculated on the basis of the results obtained for damages and destruction in the three main groups of buildings
