In 2008, natural catastrophes resulted in more than 220,000 fatalities with overall costs totalling nearly US$200 billion. The single most devastating event was the Sichuan Earthquake, which accounted for over 30 percent of the total natural catastrophe related fatalities, resulted in total losses of approximately US$85 billion and left 5 million people homeless. Extreme wind events have also led to significant losses. For example, wind related damages in the US alone were approximately US$40 billion in 2008. It is clearly recognized and generally mandated that structures be designed to protect against loss of life and property.

2008年，自然灾害造成22万多人死亡，总损失近2000亿美元。最具破坏性的单一事件是四川地震，占自然灾害相关死亡人数的30%以上，造成的总损失约为850亿美元，并导致500万人无家可归。极端风力事件也导致了重大损失。例如，2008年，仅在美国，与风有关的损失就约为400亿美元。建筑物的设计应防止生命和财产损失，这一点已得到明确承认和普遍授权。
