Seismic Expectations Analysis

The Seismic Expectations Analysis app helps project managers conduct risk assessments on the earthquake performance of structures, the earthquake performance of nonstructural components, and function continuance after an earthquake.

The app user can go through a list of indicators for Seismic Shaking Hazard Levels of low, moderate and high proportions. For each indicator, the app user can estimate the risk of earthquake effects from the threat of collapse or death risk, to repairable damage that requires evacuation, to repairable damage that does not require evacuation or no significant damage expected. This app would be an essential part of hazard assessments for a building site and would be an asset for any construction team to use when considering the seismic risk of the site.

Use this assessment app to promote seismic safety by properly evaluating structural systems. Available on any smartphone or tablet, engineers can use this analysis app while at the job site to best estimate the level of seismic vibration in real-time as well as note potential hazards and structural damage, solutions from findings such as how to best promote vibration control through proper design and construction of the building. When completed, all analysis notes and findings are saved to the GoCanvas cloud for safe recordkeeping. Try this app today to help streamline your efforts to promote life safety in the case of an earthquake as a natural hazard.
