  • Methodology for Virtual Damage Assessment and First-Floor Elevation Estimation

    Open Access•Sebastião Appleton Figueira, Mehrshad Amini et al.•ARTICLE•Natural Hazards Review•2025

    This paper presents a methodology for virtual damage assessment (VDA) of building structures using primarily pre- and post-storm street-level and aerial imagery data. The methodology includes component-based damage assessment on a damage state (DS) scale from no damage (DS0) to complete damage (DS6) for roof, walls, elevated floors, windows and doors, attachments, and foundations, and to estimate the overall damage to the structure. The methodolo…

  • Comparative Review and Assessment of Various Flood Retrofit Methods for Low-Rise Residential Buildings in Coastal Areas

    Mehrshad Amini, Ali M Memari•ARTICLE•Natural Hazards Review•2021

    Recent hurricanes indicated that retrofitted residential buildings are still susceptible to wind- and flood-induced damage in coastal areas. This poor performance indicates that flood retrofit methods need to be evaluated in terms of efficiency and effectiveness to resist hurricane wind and flood loads. This paper discusses various aspects in the hurricane-resistant design and retrofit of coastal residential buildings, including potential wind an…
