Abstract
In this study, seismic hazard assessment was conducted to calculate the probability of earthquake occurrence in Japan using the strong-motion network observed since 1996. Then, a fragility assessment was conducted to calculate the limit state exceedance probability using the past proposed regression equation. Finally, the seismic probabilistic risk assessment of railway embankments was carried out using the above hazard and fragility assessment results, and the seismic risk was mapped on the national map in Japan.
