5 1. Damage of The 3.11 Tohoku Earthquake at a Glance - Seismic Wave (2) Public Building of Osaka Prefecture Super high scraper 55 stories, 256m in height Distance from hypocenter is approx. 770km Seismic intensity at ground surface was observed 3 (JMA) Damage due to long-period ground motion Trapped in stopped elevator Damage of some fireproof doors Falling or cracked ceiling panels (more than 100 panels) 52F 38F 18F 1F p5

6 1. Damage of The 3.11 Tohoku Earthquake at a Glance - Lessons from 3.11 Earthquake (1) - The first time to observe the M9 class earthquake around Japan, and it is recognized that ground motion wasn't increased proportionally in magnitude. - Effect of baseisolated buildings. Damage in room is extremely reduced. - Unpredicted Tsunami height, e.g. observed Tsunami height at Tokyo Bay was T.P m compared with pre-event evaluated height which is up to +1.0m. - Damage due to ground liquefaction. (Especially in reclaimed area within 50 years.) - Damage in room due to long-period ground motion. - Lifeline outage spread in huge area, and significantly influenced on the business continuity of companies.

7 1. Damage of The 3.11 Tohoku Earthquake at a Glance - Lessons from 3.11 Earthquake (2) People and Japanese Companies start to think that disaster mitigation countermeasures based on public information might not be enough For instance, Lots of people were extremely frightened because buildings were shaken widely. Is our office building is still healthy/secured even if the next big earthquake happened under the Great Tokyo area? Give me specific information, not talking about general building based on structural design standard. A Building owner of our office always says "This building is designed based on old structural designed code (enforced before 1981), however result of seismic diagnosis indicates this building has adequate seismic capacity equivalent to buildings designed by new code. What dose it mean "adequate"? It may be for evacuating people. We want know effects on business continuity in more detail. Governmental building should be a key station in a time of disaster, however budgets is not unlimited. Benefit-cost analysis is necessary for possible alternatives. p7

8 2. Why "Seismic Risk Evaluation" is important? When think about "Seismic Risk" from the view points of business continuity, it varies by many parameters, such as; Important Facilities 1. Seismic capacity of building itself, 2. Is it located near active faults, and is occurrence probability of the fault high?, 3. Is amplification of surface ground relatively high?, and 4. Where and how important facilities installed? Namely, it is important that we need to know potential risk before thinking about countermeasures to mitigate/translate/avoid the risk. Avoid (Alternative) Current condition Risk Evaluation Shift (Insurance) Gap Mitigate (retrofitting etc.) Objectives Business Impact Analysis p8

9 3. Evaluation Methodology Ex. of methodology Probabilistic Approach Monte Carlo Simulation Hazard Curve etc. Deterministic Approach Based on individual scenarios etc. Ex. of application Real Estate Securitization Damage Prediction of Governments Index/result of evaluation PML Probable Maximum Loss Direct Damage (Physical / Human Suffering) Indirect Damage (Economical) Problem to use for organizations Hard to image countermeasures practically Unexpected Scenarios Contain Engineering Judgments p9
