Download or read book The Nisqually, Washington, Earthquake of February 28, 2001 ... written by Nisqually Earthquake Clearinghouse Group and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 6.8 magnitude Nisqually earthquake was an extensional intraplate event deep below the Puget Sound region, in the Cascadia subduction zone. It occurred in the Juan de Fuca oceanic plate, which is subducted beneath the North American plate. The hypocenter lay 30 miles beneath the Nisqually delta area, approximately 11 miles northeast of Olympia, Washington, USA. Loss of life was limited to one person, who suffered a heart attack that was attributed to earthquake trauma. Approximately 400 people were injured sufficiently to seek medical assistance. On the day of the earthquake, a state of emergency was declared. The next day, the Governor requested federal assistance and estimated the economic consequences at $2 billion. This 26-page report presents a preliminary description of the seismological back-ground, the ground motions, the responses of natural and man-made structures-buildings, bridges, and lifelines-to those ground motions, and the societal consequences.

Download or read book Nisqually, Washington, Earthquake of February 2001 written by Peter W. McDonough and published by ASCE Publications. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prepared by the Technical Council on Lifeline Earthquake Engineering of ASCE. This TCLEE Monograph details the effects of the Nisqually, Washington, earthquake of February 28, 2001. Despite the magnitude of this 6.8 earthquake, only moderate damage was reported on older structures, and minimal damage was reported on newer engineered buildings. Although catastrophic damage did not occur, investigators did find some significant damage to the lifeline infrastructure, particularly roads, bridges, and the Sea-Tac airport control tower. Topics include geoscience and geotechnical aspects, highway systems, power systems, water supply, wastewater, railways, gas and liquid fuels, communications, airports, marine facilities, fire department response, and hazardous materials.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book documents the First World Landslide Forum, which was jointly organized by the International Consortium on Landslides (ICL), eight UN organizations (UNESCO, WMO, FAO, UN/ISDR, UNU, UNEP, World Bank, UNDP) and four NGOs (International Council for Science, World Federation of Engineering Organizations, Kyoto Univ. and Japan Landslide Society) in Tokyo in 2008. The material consists of four parts: The Open Forum "Progress of IPL Activities; Four Thematic Lectures in the Plenary Symposium "Global Landslide Risk Reduction"; Six Keynote Lectures in the Plenary session; and the aims and overviews of eighteen parallel sessions (dealing with various aspects necessary for landslide disaster risk reduction such as: observations from space; climate change and slope instability; landslides threatening heritage sites; the economic and social impact of landslides; monitoring, prediction and early warning; and risk-management strategies in urban area, etc.) Thus it enables the reader to benefit from a wide range of research intended to reduce risk due to landslide disasters as presented in the first global multi-disciplinary meeting.
Book Synopsis Approaches to Managing Disaster by : John Tiefenbacher
Download or read book Approaches to Managing Disaster written by John Tiefenbacher and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2012-03-14 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Approaches to Managing Disaster - Assessing Hazards, Emergencies and Disaster Impacts demonstrates the array of information that is critical for improving disaster management. The book reflects major management components of the disaster continuum (the nature of risk, hazard, vulnerability, planning, response and adaptation) in the context of threats that derive from both nature and technology. The chapters include a selection of original research reports by an array of international scholars focused either on specific locations or on specific events. The chapters are ordered according to the phases of emergencies and disasters. The text reflects the disciplinary diversity found within disaster management and the challenges presented by the co-mingling of science and social science in their collective efforts to promote improvements in the techniques, approaches, and decision-making by emergency-response practitioners and the public. This text demonstrates the growing complexity of disasters and their management, as well as the tests societies face every day.
