Book Synopsis Regulation Versus Litigation by : Daniel P. Kessler
Download or read book Regulation Versus Litigation written by Daniel P. Kessler and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2011-02 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The efficacy of various political institutions is the subject of intense debate between proponents of broad legislative standards enforced through litigation and those who prefer regulation by administrative agencies. This book explores the trade-offs between litigation and regulation, the circumstances in which one approach may outperform the other, and the principles that affect the choice between addressing particular economic activities with one system or the other. Combining theoretical analysis with empirical investigation in a range of industries, including public health, financial markets, medical care, and workplace safety, Regulation versus Litigation sheds light on the costs and benefits of two important instruments of economic policy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Healthcare facilities or hospital systems are classified as some of the most critical infrastructure systems when responding to natural disasters. Seismic Resilience Assessment of Hospital Infrastructure systematically presents a suite of novel techniques developed by the authors and their team for seismic resilience assessment of hospital infrastructure, with particular emphasis on seismic tests and fragility models of hospital equipment, resilience assessment of single hospital buildings and emergency departments, and post-earthquake functionality of urban hospital infrastructures. Features: Presents a state-of-the-art review on hospital resilience Develops seismic fragility model database for hospital equipment based on shaking table tests Provides a road map for effective and efficient methods necessary for assessing and improving seismic resilience of hospital systems and other critical engineering systems Expertly summarizes outcomes of many important research projects sponsored by various research agencies, including the National Natural Science Foundation of China
Book Synopsis Rapid Visual Screening of Buildings for Potential Seismic Hazards: Supporting Documentation by :
Download or read book Rapid Visual Screening of Buildings for Potential Seismic Hazards: Supporting Documentation written by and published by Government Printing Office. This book was released on 2015 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Rapid Visual Screening (RVS) handbook can be used by trained personnel to identify, inventory, and screen buildings that are potentially seismically vulnerable. The RVS procedure comprises a method and several forms that help users to quickly identify, inventory, and score buildings according to their risk of collapse if hit by major earthquakes. The RVS handbook describes how to identify the structural type and key weakness characteristics, how to complete the screening forms, and how to manage a successful RVS program.
Book Synopsis Updating the Costs of Compliance for California's Hospital Seismic Safety Standards by : Benjamin L. Preston
Download or read book Updating the Costs of Compliance for California's Hospital Seismic Safety Standards written by Benjamin L. Preston and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1994 Northridge earthquake led to legislation in California-Senate Bill (SB) 1953-which requires upgrades to hospital buildings to enhance resilience to seismic events. Since the passage of SB 1953, hospitals have been implementing structural and nonstructural upgrades to comply with the standards. The potential costs of SB 1953 have raised significant concerns regarding both the financial burden on hospital systems and the opportunity costs associated with hospitals investing large pools of capital in implementing seismic upgrades. This report updates previous RAND estimates of the costs to hospitals of future compliance with SB 1953, with a particular focus on the 2030 deadline. In addition to generating direct estimates of the costs of retrofitting or rebuilding noncompliant buildings, the authors assess the affordability of compliance based on recent hospital financial data. Given the challenges of cost and affordability, the authors also present a range of policy alternatives that could be implemented alone or in combination to ease the compliance challenge while building seismic resilience in California hospitals. Results from quantitative and qualitative analyses indicate that, despite decades of investment in seismic compliance projects, California hospitals still face a financial obligation potentially totaling tens of billions of dollars by 2030. Many hospitals are already experiencing financial stress, and the burden of future compliance is likely to exacerbate this stress. There are options for providing regulatory relief or flexibility to hospitals: public subsidies to share the costs of compliance or reduce financing costs, additional flexibility in compliance deadlines, new standards for what it means for hospitals to remain operational postevent, and streamlined administrative processes. Regardless, addressing long-standing knowledge gaps associated with the benefits and costs of SB 1953 implementation can provide important information to decisionmakers regarding the merits of pursuing future changes in seismic requirements.
