Assessment of Damage From the 1994 Northridge Eathquake Relative to Planning Since the 1971 San Fernando Earthquake

9416458法国这个项目是作为国家减少地震灾害计划的一部分得到资助的，该计划调查1994年1月17日北岭地震的原因和后果。土地利用规划由加利福尼亚州强制执行了近30年，自1971年圣费尔南多地震以来，地方政府一直被要求在其当地土地利用计划中包括地震危险。然而，这些计划的质量各不相同。该项目将调查旨在最大限度地减少未来地震破坏的土地利用计划的质量、北岭地震后圣费尔南多河谷各社区之间的破坏情况以及地震后计划的变化之间的关系。***

9416458 French This project is being funded as part of the National Earthquake Hazards Reduction Program's investigation into the causes and consequences of the January 17, 1994 Northridge earthquake. Land use planning has been mandated by the state of California for nearly thirty years, and since the 1971 San Fernando earthquake local governments have been required to include earthquake hazards in their local land use plans. These plans, however, vary in quality. This project will investigate the relationship between the quality of land use plans aimed at minimizing future earthquake damage; how damage varied among communities within the San Fernando Valley following the Northridge earthquake; and changes in plans following the earthquake. ***
