Fundamental Study on Evacuation Center Planning in Tsuyama City

Abstract eng:
The purpose of the present study is, by using the "Tsuyama disaster prevention hazard map" that has been developed in Tsuyama City as basic data, to grasp the distribution state and seating capacity of the evacuation centers which has been specified in the map in the event of a disaster, and to obtain the basic material for planning a proper evacuation center arrangement corresponding to the population distribution of each district in Tsuyama City. In the evacuation for the whole area of Tsuyama City, it has been revealed that only the indoor space cannot cope with the shortage of the seating capacity, but it can be coped with for the temporary emergency evacuation when including the outdoor space. When considering each district, there is a district that cannot cope with the emergency evacuation, and there is a district that the seating capacity is not enough even taking the evacuation to the neighboring district into consideration. It has been revealed that 345 people in 1 district cannot respond to the emergency evacuation even when the seismic resistance for the evacuation facilities is not taken into account, and in the case of considering the seismic resistance, 3,477 people in 4 districts cannot perform the emergency evacuation. As a countermeasure to cope with the emergency evacuation on the whole city basis, it is necessary to consider to use private facilities within the district as emergency evacuation centers without limiting to consider the construction and designation of a new evacuation center, or to use only the public facilities for evacuation facilities. Furthermore, in order to evacuate residents safely, it is required to develop an evacuation plan by taking the landslides and mudslides, blocking of escape routes due to flooding of rivers, and the collapse of the evacuation facility into consideration.
