Affordable seismic strengthening of stone masonry walls
In the Himalayan region, stone masonry with mud mortar is a widely used construction method for buildings, due to the simplicity of the technique and the abundance of materials. This is particularly applicable in Nepal, where over 80% of the land is mountainous. The 2015 Gorkha Earthquake led to significant damage to 60% of these stone masonry school buildings, thus revealing their seismic vulnerability. This extend of seismic damage poses the ur…
Revisions to the Nepalese Building Code (NBC 105
Enhanced seismic hazard assessments are needed to improve codes of practice for use in earthquake-prone regions. In 2020, Nepal published an update to the 1994 building code, which incorporates learning from new research after the 7.8 Mw 2015 Gorkha earthquake and best practices from seismic codes at the international level. In this technical note, the seismic hazard of the latest version of the code is compared with recent probabilistic seismic …
Integrated tsunami risk framework considering agent-based evacuation modelling
This study develops an integrated tsunami risk framework combining stochastic tsunami hazard and agent-based evacuation modelling. The framework is applied to the case of Saga, Kochi, Japan, with a population of ∼ 2,200 anticipated to experience significant tsunami events (∼ M9.0). First, stochastic earthquake source models are generated for two values of magnitudes (M8.8 and M9.0) and used to carry out stochastic tsunami inundation simulations. …
Financial assessment of incremental seismic retrofitting of Nepali stone-masonry buildings
