In this work, the vulnerability of an unreinforced masonry building, evaluated on the one hand by using the incremental dynamic analysis, and on the other hand by using nine representative non-linear static incremental procedures, is compared. For comparison reasons among the different non-linear static procedures, the obtained incremental dynamic analyses results are used as reference values. The aim of this analysis is to evaluate the applicability and reliability of the diverse non-linear static procedures for unreinforced masonry buildings, and to propose modifications oriented to improve their use in this typology of structures. For this purpose, a fully representative unreinforced masonry building of the dominating building type in the Eixample district of Barcelona, is analyzed. Furthermore, the conditional spectrum approach procedure has been applied with the aim to conveniently define the seismic demand. Regarding the definition of the fragility curves, two different methodologies were used for each non-linear static procedure and incremental dynamic analyzes. Subsequently, the corresponding damage indices as well as the damage curves were calculated and compared for the different considered peak ground acceleration values. The results of this comparison seem to confirm that the damage curves obtained by performing the NSP and by applying the Risk-UE methodology overestimate the damage corresponding to low values of the PGA and underestimate the damage for higher values of the PGA.
