1. RECOVERY and RECONSTRUCTION after the PAKISTAN EARTHQUAKE CHOOSING OPTIONS THAT WILL FACILITATE LONG-TERM RECOVERY FROM THE OCTOBER 8, 2005 DISASTER

2. OCTOBER 8, 2005 PAKISTAN EARTHQUAKE

3. LONG-TERM RECOVERY NEEDS AFTER PAKISTAN EARTHQUAKE  NEED 2 TO 3 MILLION NEW DWELLINGS THAT ARE EARTHQUAKE RESILIENT.  NEED NEW SCHOOLS THAT ARE EARTHQUAKE RESILIENT.  NEED NEW HOSPITALS THAT ARE EARTHQUAKE RESILIENT.  NEED INFRASTRUCTURE THAT IS EARTHQUAKE RESILIENT.

4. GOALGOAL  COMMUNITIES BECOMING RESILIENT TO GROUND SHAKING, LANDSLIDES, AND THE AFTERSHOCKS  COMMUNITIES ADOPTING AND IMPLEMENTING PUBLIC POLICY MANDATES FOR MITIGATION, PREPAREDNESS, EMERGENCY RESPONSE, AND RECOVERY AND RECONSTRUCTION

5. OBJECTIVESOBJECTIVES  TO MARSHAL AND INTEGRATE EACH COMMUNITY’S STAPLE FORCES,..  …GIVING THEM AN EQUITY IN DESIGNING PROCESSES FOR BECOMING EARTHQUAKE RESILIENT.  TO MARSHAL AND INTEGRATE EACH COMMUNITY’S STAPLE FORCES,..  …GIVING THEM AN EQUITY IN DESIGNING PROCESSES FOR BECOMING EARTHQUAKE RESILIENT.

6. PROCESSES FOR BECOMING EARTHQUAKE RESILIENT  IMPROVING PUBLIC AWARENESS  IMPROVING PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION AND TRAINING  IMPROVING MONITORING AND WARNING SYSTEMS  IMPROVING PUBLIC AWARENESS  IMPROVING PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION AND TRAINING  IMPROVING MONITORING AND WARNING SYSTEMS  IMPROVED BUILDING CODES FOR NEW BUILDINGS  IMPROVED STANDARDS FOR NEW INFRASTRUCTURE  STRENGTHENING AND RETROFIT OF EXISTING STRUCTURES  EXPANDING INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION  IMPROVED BUILDING CODES FOR NEW BUILDINGS  IMPROVED STANDARDS FOR NEW INFRASTRUCTURE  STRENGTHENING AND RETROFIT OF EXISTING STRUCTURES  EXPANDING INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION

7. OBJECTIVESOBJECTIVES  USING STATE-OF- ART TOOLS TO ASSESS HAZARDS AND RISK (E.G., GROUND SHAKING MAPS AND HAZUS )  USING EMERGING TECHNOLOGY TO REDUCE VULNERABILITY IN THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT (E.G., ACTIVE AND PASSIVE ENERGY DISSIPATION)

8. STARTING POINTS  IN-COUNTRY BASIC AND APPLIED RESEARCH  LESSONS FROM THE OCTOBER 8, 2005 DISASTER  IN-COUNTRY BASIC AND APPLIED RESEARCH  LESSONS FROM THE OCTOBER 8, 2005 DISASTER  MAPS  INFORMATION  GUIDELINES FOR APPLICATIONS BY EMERGENCY MANAGERS, BUILDING OFFICIALS, AND URBAN PLANNERS  MAPS  INFORMATION  GUIDELINES FOR APPLICATIONS BY EMERGENCY MANAGERS, BUILDING OFFICIALS, AND URBAN PLANNERS

9. LESSONS FROM PAKISTAN EARTHQUAKE  THE EARTHQUAKE OCCURRED ALONG THE MAIN BOUNDARY THRUST ZONE (MBT).  THE MBT RUNS ALONG THE HIMALAYAN ARC FOR ABOUT 2,500 KM..

10. LESSONS FROM PAKISTAN EARTHQUAKE  CONSTRUCTION WAS MAINLY CONCENTRATED ON THE FLOOD- PLAIN DEPOSITS OF THE NEEHLAN, JAHLUM, AND KUNHAR RIVERS.  BUILDINGS IM MUZAFFARABAD SITED ON SAND AND GRAVEL DEPOSITS WERE SEVERELY DAMAGED.  BUILDINGS SITED ON ROCK WERE NOT SEVERELY DAMAGED.
