Casualties, Search and Rescue and Medical Care in Heavily Damaged Buildings: The Phillippine Earthquake Experience

这项研究将调查地震伤害的原因， 多层钢筋混凝土结构-- 致命的建筑类型 具体来说，受伤和死亡 将研究1990年菲律宾 地震 该项目包括分析已经 收集的数据，涉及的观点和方法， 建筑、结构工程、表皮学和 急诊医学 重点将放在 建筑性能、震动强度和居住者之间 伤害模式中的行为。

This study will investigate the causes of earthquake injuries in multi-story, reinforced concrete structures--one of the most lethal building types. Specifically, injuries and fatalities will be studied that occurred during the 1990 Philippine earthquake. This project comprises the analysis of already collected data, involving perspectives and methods from the fields of architecture, structural engineering, epidermiology and emergency medicine. The focus will be on the relationship between building performance, shaking intensity and occupant actions in the pattern of injuries.
