DAMAGE INSPECTION OBJECTIVES
Primary:
To save human life and prevent injuries by identifying buildings that have been weakened by the earthquake and are therefore threatened by subsequent aftershocks
Secondary:
To save properties by identifying emergency strengtheningneeds and measures (shoring, bracing, partial or total demolitions etc.);
To collect the data necessary for obtaining reliable estimates of the disaster to allow authorities to take relief measures, formulate disaster mitigation policies and allocate available resources
To provide data that will identify frequent causes of damage, so that potential rehabilitation plans may take into account such assessments;
