Site Selection for Wenchuan Reconstruction after the Earthquake and Historical Anti-seismic Experience in Beijing
|
Abstract:
The Wenchuan Earthquake of May 12,2008(Mw 8.0)caused great loss in property and lives.The damage caused by the earthquake has a strong spatial correlation with the geological structure of earthquake-stricken areas.Historical seismicity in this area show explicit temporal-spatial pattern,indicating that multidiscipline must be employed prudently in identifying areas for resettlements in the disaster area.Wenchuan earthquake is similar to the Pinggu-Sanhe Earthquake(Mw 8.0)of 1679 in Beijing.It is therefore necessary to conduct a more in-depth study of the Beijing area that has repeatedly experienced seismic events,together with an analysis of its geological structure.Some historical experiences about mitigation of seismic risk in Beijing are also presented in this paper as reference,especially for future development of Wenchuan disaster area.
