Rapid Visual Screening of Buildings for Potential Seismic Hazards
training on how to identify potentially hazardous buildings before
earthquakes occur. The course covers methods and processes that enable
rapidly identify, inventory, and rank local buildings according to
their expected safety and usability during and after earthquakes. Local officials
can use these data to plan and prioritize further engineering and vulnerability
analysis, emergency response needs, and mitigation projects.
Postearthquake Safety Evaluation of Buildings, provides training on
rapid and detailed evaluation procedures for evaluating earthquake
buildings and posting them as INSPECTED (apparently safe, green placard),
LIMITED ENTRY (yellow placard), or UNSAFE (red placard). It provides
examples which allow attendees to evaluate building damage conditions, assess
the overall risk from the damage, and recommend which of the three placards
should be posted on the building.
