Earthquake is one of the hazard so hard to provide because it is difficult predicted occurred time, scale and characters. Neighbors which have damaged by earthquake look out for statement of damage, It is bigger than nation which has not prepared seismic code at ordinary time seismic damage which belong to loss of life. The earthquake in Kobe, Japan showed that the damages were concentrated on the buildings which were not considered to be protected from the earthquakes. Seismic code applied structures was small damaged but non applied structures was much damaged such as collapse and loss of life. In this study, apartment structures in Korea analyze about earthquake hazard and evaluate seismic performance. Through the this study we have notice of earthquake hazard for apartment structures which live a lot of population of Korea and suppose necessary for seismic retrofit.
This study analyzes damage estimation technique of earthquake disaster. In order to do this, 1) Proposition of current situation analysis and direction of improvement domestic and foreign-related systems of earthquake disaster response system, 2) Establishment and design of research earthquake disaster damage assesment system 3) Analysis and investigation of domestic and foreign-related soil field on damage estimation, 4) Creation of soil liquefaction risk-map and processes method of soil information. When occurred an earthquake, occurs the system rapidly displays seismic intensity distribution and life, structure, lifeline damage estimations. This enables decision makers to support the earthquake disaster response decisions. Eventually, earthquake disaster damages are expected to be reduced significantly.
