Land Use Planning for Seismic Mitigation: Lessons from Los Angeles

这个项目是作为国家减少地震灾害计划对1994年1月17日地震的原因和影响进行调查的一部分得到资助的。主要的研究问题是：规划可以通过哪些方式降低地震风险？以洛杉矶地区为例，本项目将记录和评估规划被用作减少地震危险的地震战略的方式。采用案例研究的方法，该项目将审查政策的历史发展及其对当地规划决策的影响。1971年地震引发的国家和州政策变化是如何影响到1994年相邻地区发生的破坏规模的？＊＊＊

9416499 Olshansky This project is being funded as part of the National Earthquake Hazards Reduction Program's investigation into the causes and effects of the January 17, 1994 earthquake. The primary research question is: In what ways can planning reduce earthquake risks? Using the Los Angeles area as an example, this project will document and evaluate the ways in which planning has been used as an earthquake hazard reduction earthquake strategy. Using a case study approach, the project will examine the historical development of policy and its effect on local planning decisions. How did national and state policy changes catalyzed by the 1971 earthquake come back to affect the scale of damage that occurred in adjacent areas in 1994? ***
