Pages : 168
Book Description
The Kobe Earthquake of 17 January 1995 devastated the city due to a series of geological reasons and the location of its epicentre. However, the analysis of its effect on soil liquefaction, lifeline systems, ground failure and other important sources in damage can help us to understand and improve our approach to the design and analysis of structures in seismic regions.

Category : Bridges
Languages : en
Pages : 109
Book Description
The two papers in this volume illustrate how the January 17, 1995 Kobe (Hyogo-ken Nanbu) earthquake was a catalyst for rapid change: 1) "Bridge Repairs After the 1995 Kobe (Hyogo-ken Nanbu) Earthquake," by Caltrans Bridge Engineer Mark Yashinsky, surveys the damage to bridges and highway transportation structures and describes how the need to retrofit to an improved seismic standard drove immediate research to determine appropriate criteria and methods for repair and retrofit.2) "The 1995 Kobe (Hyogo-ken Nanbu) Earthquake as a Trigger for Implementing New Seismic Design Technologies in Japan," by structural engineers Peter W. Clark and Ian D. Aiken, with input from Japanese colleagues M. Nakashima, M. Miyazaki, and M. Midorikawa, provides a broad perspective on the implementation of isolation technologies in the wake of the Kobe earthquake

Geotechnical Reconnaissance of the Effects of the January 17, 1995, Hyogoken-Nanbu Earthquake, Japan

ISBN: 0788125389

Languages : en
Pages : 168
Book Description
The Jan. 17, 1995, Hyogoken-Nanbu Earthquake was one of the worst disasters to hit Japan in almost half a century. It has been compared in its impact to the great Kanto (Tokyo) Earthquake of 1923. The Kobe-Osaka region held many similarities in its geologic and tectonic setting to many areas along the West Coast, and possibly, other areas of the U.S. A geotechnical reconnaissance to identify the relevant problems and issues was organized. This report provides a timely, first-hand overview of the type and extent of the geotechnical aspects of the damage.

V poročilu so opisane posledice potresa Hyogoken-Nanbu, ki je 17. januarja 1995 prizadel območje mesta Kobe na Japonskem. Navedeni so osnovni podatki o potresu in opisane njegove neposredne posledice, opisan je tudi odziv na potres, tj. akcije reševanja in pomoči. Natančneje so prikazane posledice potresa na stavbe in objekte prometne infrastrukture.

Book Description
The most devastating earthquake to hit Japan since the 1923 Tokyo earthquake occurred at 5:46 A.M. local time on January 17, 1995. As this report went to press, over 5,000 people were reported killed, more than 26,000 people were injured, and over 300,000 people were left homeless. At the time of the earthquake, about 40 American engineers, scientists, and government officials were in Osaka, 30 km east of Kobe, for a joint U.S.-Japan Workshop on Urban Earthquake Hazard Reduction, co-sponsored by the Earthquake Engineering Research Institute (EERI) and the Japan Institute of Social Safety Science (ISSS), and funded by National Science Foundation (NSF). The workshop participants immediately undertook preliminary post earthquake reconnaissance efforts ... This report summarizes preliminary information gathered by the workshop participants in the first week after the earthquake. The damage caused by the magnitude 6.8 Hyogo-Ken Nanbu earthquake (Great Hanshin Earthquake Disaster) is so extensive that field investigations and cooperative studies with other organizations will continue for some time--
