Book excerpt: This volume presents recent advances in research, practice, post earthquake investigation, and public policy in lifeline earthquake engineering as a discipline and as a component of infrastructure rehabilitation. Written by utility engineers, consultants, managers, and transportation agency personnel from various nations, papers review newer emerging topics of lifeline interaction and socio-economic effects, as well as hazard assessment methods, analysis procedures, and design approaches. Topics range from bridge analysis and rehabilitation to bridge earthquake damage assessment, electric power and communications to gas and liquid fuels. Case studies and papers detail the seismic assessment of offshore pipelines; above ground pipeline response to random ground motion; bridge prioritization for emergency responses; inspection and rehabilitation of tunnels across faults; and spectral characteristics of vertical ground motion in the Northridge and other earthquakes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prepared by the Technical Council on Lifeline Earthquake Engineering of ASCE. This TCLEE Monograph studies seven large lifeline organizations that have undertaken significant seismic improvement programs. In spite of often-cited barriers to natural hazards risk reduction, these organizations demonstrate a variety of ways to start and sustain risk-reduction programs. In these economically and politically robust organizations, top-level managers and high-level inside technical seismic advocates learned from the damage done by past earthquakes to their systems or similar systems and from research and educational programs. Then, each group developed an overall view of its system's earthquake vulnerabilities and devised adaptable, incremental seismic implementation programs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prepared by the Council on Disaster Reduction and the Technical Council on Lifeline Earthquake Engineering of ASCE. This TCLEE Monograph provides engineers and decision makers with tools to help them better understand acceptable risk processes and then develop risk reduction strategies and implement mitigation actions to reduce lifeline losses from future earthquakes. The disruption of lifelines from natural hazards has a direct impact on the world's regional economies and the health of their citizens. Therefore, it is important to understand what natural hazards are, how they can affect infrastructure lifelines, and what can be done to minimize their impact. These three elements, in turn, influence decisions that involve acceptable risk processes. The topic of "acceptable risk" provides one way of bringing integrated systems risk evaluations for disaster explicitly into a decision-making context. Topics include technical issues; risk criteria issues; and communication, administration, and regulation issues.
