Change in handling uncertainty causes a 4% decrease in damage, for a very small sample

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Revision 1177 changed how uncertainty was represented for the capacity curve.  
Due to the change the standard results from scenario TS_risk20 were updated, 
which simulates 6 building.  This change caused an overall decrease in loss of 
4%.

Does this indicate the change in representing uncertainly has changed the mean 
capacity curve?

A sample size of 6 is not sufficient to form any implications.
