The "Big One" is NOTHING compared to this... The San Andreas earthquake expected to hit California one day pales in comparison to the "Really Big One"--the Cascadia megaquake--a doomsday scenario that, when it goes off, is poised to utterly devastate the Pacific Northwest and endanger the lives of everyone who lives there. Kenneth Murphy, FEMA's Pacific Northwest director, was once quoted as saying: "Our operating assumption is that everything west of Interstate 5 will be toast." He's not exaggerating one bit. Not only will we be rocked by the biggest earthquake to EVER hit the mainland United States, but we'll be inundated with: Massive Tsunamis Waves All Along the Coastline Destructive Flooding for Many Miles Inland Widespread Wildfires and Suffocating Smoke Dozens to HUNDREDS of Powerful Aftershocks Plus Downed Trees and Powerlines That Will Slow Rescue Efforts to a Crawl And More! You know earthquakes strike without warning, and if you live anywhere near the Pacific Northwest then you need to get ready for this approaching threat before it's too late. Now, expert prepper, Damian Brindle, shares his must-read advice for how you can stay safe when the Cascadia Megathrust quake strikes. Here's what you'll discover inside: Vital Earthquake Science You Should Know (to Understand Why This Megaquake is so Different Than Anything Previous) The "Who, What, When, Why and Where" Details You Need to Know (to Demystify the Event and its Destructive Aftermath) Precisely How a Cascadia Megathrust Quake Will Devastate the Entire Pacific Northwest (so You Know What to be Ready for) And the 7 Most Important Solutions to Survive This Coming Disaster (so You Know What to do Now to Stay Safe) Remember this: Every disaster America has ever faced pales in comparison to this doomsday threat - you won't get a second chance to be ready. Don't leave your survival up to chance! Fast to read and easy to implement, buy now and be prepared for when the Cascadia Megaquake strikes.

In earthquake-prone regions of the world it is important not only to ensure that new facilities meet optimal standards but also that existing structures and infrastructure be retrofitted and rehabilitated. As world populations concentrate in urban areas, the stakes in human life and property of such natural disasters as earthquakes becomes higher and higher. This has been driving research on advances in the field. These advances are presented biennially at a conference organised by the Wessex Institute of Technology.The advances presented at the ninth conference in the series, which began in 1991 are presented in this book. The papers cover Plates and other geological risks; Earthquake prediction; Microzoning; Remote sensing / Monitoring / Early warning systems; Seismic codes; Seismic hazard and vulnerability; Tsunamis; Seismic isolation and energy dissipation; Structural dynamics; Building performance during earthquakes; Retrofitting; Lifelines; Material mechanics and characterisation; Nonlinear numerical analysis; Performance based design; Experimental studies; Forensic analysis; Safety and security; Socio-economic issues; Insurance related issues; Innovative technologies; Case studies.

Since the publication of the successful first edition of Earthquake Protection there have been 110 lethal earthquakes, killing 130 000 people; there have also been significant developments in the field of earthquake risk management, particularly in the modelling and analysis of risk for insurance and financial services. Furthermore, major earthquake disasters, such as the 1994 Northridge earthquake in California, the 1995 Kobe earthquake in Japan and the 1999 Kocaeli earthquake in Turkey have occurred. The experience and knowledge gained through these events have improved our understanding of how to manage, mitigate and work towards the prevention of similar catastrophes. The 1990s were in fact the costliest decade on record in terms of disaster management due to such seismic events, placing unprecedented pressure on the insurance industry in particular, and changing its view of earthquake protection. Significantly revised and updated, this second edition continues to provide a comprehensive overview of how to reduce the impact of earthquakes on people and property, and implement best practice in managing the consequences of such disasters. It also includes significant coverage of the techniques of modelling earthquake catastrophe. Each chapter deals with a separate aspect of protection, and covers a wide range of economic and social conditions, drawing on the authors' considerable personal experience and with reference to real life examples. Key features include: Recent event coverage Modern developments in the theory and practice of planning and engineering loss estimation techniques, along with new engineering techniques such as microzonation and hazard-mapping Historic buildings experience An entirely new chapter on 'Earthquakes and Finance' This valuable book provides essential reading for earthquake and structural engineers and geoscientists, as well as insurers and loss prevention specialists, risk managers and assessors involved in managing earthquake risk, urban and regional planners, and emergency management agencies.

Damage assessment, rehabilitation, decision-making, social consequences, repair and reconstruction; these are all critical factors for considerations following natural disasters such as earthquakes. In order to address these issues, the United States of America and the Peoples Republic of China regularly organize bilateral symposia/workshops to investigate multiple hazard mitigation, particularly with respect to earthquake engineering. This book contains state-of-the-art reports presented by world-renowned researchers at the US/PRC Sympsosium Workshop on Post-Earthquake Rehabilitation and Reconstruction held in Kunming, Yunnan, China, May 1995. The following key areas are addressed: damage assessment of structures after earthquakes; lessons of post-earthquake recovery, rehabilitation and reconstruction, including public policy, land use options, urban planning, and design; issues in and examples of decision-making, and implementation of rehabilitation and reconstruction plans and policies; repair, strengthening, retrofit and control of structures and lifeline systems, post-earthquake socio-economic problems covering issues of relief and recovery; human and organizational behavior during emergency response, and strategies for improvement; real-time monitoring of earthquake response and damage.

Scientists have identified Seattle, Portland, and Vancouver as the urban centers of what will be the biggest earthquake—the Really Big One—in the continental United States. A quake will happen--in fact it's actually overdue. The Cascadia subduction zone is 750 miles long, running along the Pacific coast from Northern California up to southern British Columbia. In this fascinating book, The Seattle Times science reporter Sandi Doughton introduces readers to the scientists who are dedicated to understanding the way the earth moves and describes what patterns can be identified and how prepared (or not) people are. With a 100% chance of a mega-quake hitting the Pacific Northwest, this fascinating book reports on the scientists who are trying to understand when, where, and just how big THE BIG ONE will be. From the Trade Paperback edition.
