Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Data base for seismic risk assessment in Mexico city

Publicación: [S.l. : s.n.], [199-?]Descripción física: [11] p. ; 30 cmNotas: Sumario: After the September 19, 1985 earthquake, which produced severe damage to buildings in Mexico city's lake-bed zone, many efforts have been made to better understand the nature of ground motions and the seismic behavior of sctructures. Results from these efforts give now the possibility to combine several sources of information to produce estimates of seismic hazard and risk that would be expected due to the occurrence of postulated earthquakes. In this paper, we describe a model to estimate: a) expected ground motions and b) expected damage, based on intensity damage relations derived for 14 classes of buldings representative of Mexico City constructionMateria / lugar / evento: Terremotos México Resistencia sísmica Edificios Cálculo de estructuras Evaluación de riesgos Otros autores: Ordaz, M.
