| Abstract;An investigation is carried out on earthquake damage to 839 buildings in and around Bam City, and seismic intensities, using European Macroseismic Scale 1998 (EMS98), are estimated. The northern and eastern sides of Bam City show higher damage rates (more than 80%), than the southern and western sides (20% less). Combining the results and the vulnerability classes of various building types, the estimated MSK intensities are higher (up to XI) at the northern and eastern sides, and lower (down to VIII) at the south and west sides.
