Seismic Hazard Potential of Mymensingh Town Mymensingh District Mymensingh Municipality Source: Mymensingh Pourashava Office 11/05/20147

Seismic Hazard Potential of Mymensingh Town  Mymensingh township area lies geologically in active seismic zone.  Suitable place for township area for sound communication network and better educational facilities.  One of the densely populated cities in Bangladesh: 10,392 people per km 2 & 1,997 building per km 2  Stiff/Dense soil is the characteristic soil type of Mymensingh Municipality.  Seismic Hazard Risk Sensitive Land use Planning for Mymensingh town yet not implemented.  In sum, Mymensingh town is highly vulnerable to the earthquake disaster due to proximity of major faults, high density of population and unplanned land use pattern. 11/05/20148
