000012023 520__ $$2eng$$aRural villages in China often fall victims of earthquake. The main cause of high seismic vulnerability is lacking seismic design and poor construction habit. With the rapid development of China in recent years, the governments at all levels begin to pay much attention to seismic safety of rural dwellings. A striking example is Xinjiang Uigur Autonomous Region, where governments invested a huge sum and pushed hard for a region-wide seismic safety project of rural dwellings and achieved good result. Apart from Xinjiang, other Chinese provinces also carried out projects of similar purpose but adopt different strategies. The difference in their way for seismic safety of rural dwellings often reflect local conditions including seismic hazard background, local economic status, tradition and public awareness etc. In this presentation, the method of improving seismic safety of rural dwellings are summarized and classified into several categories. Feature of each category are explained with actual examples. Through this survey-based study, it is helpful to draw lessons from what has been done for seismic safety in different part of China. At the same time, a complete and reality orientated framework is established for pushing ahead demonstration projects on seismic safety of rural dwellings.
