Seismic Risk & Sustainable Safety: State of Art and State of Practice

Abstract eng:
State of art and application of aggregate risk analysis for urban safe development are a main objective of this work. Advanced approach and applied technique such as multipurpose and target disaster scenarios and maps of risk are considered as the best apparatus for risk awareness and management for sustainable safety. Aggregate risk analysis and mapping were worked out in territorial and municipal levels and are used in such important documents as risk maps, land use cadastre, passports of investment attractiveness of territories, , passports of regional and municipal safety and for controlling the process of the safe urban and industrial development. Importance and necessity of application of the scale of structural serviceability, vulnerability classification, disaster magnitude and the improved Macroseismic scale in risk analysis are underlined. Criteria of acceptable and permissible risk are presented in developed and developing countries. Special indicators for monitoring of the sustainable safety progress have been offered. Criteria of risk and other fields of application of the risk analysis, which are accompanied with examples implemented into practice, are also under consideration.
