Evento

RECSI October Dinner Meeting

Join us for an evening discussing...

The coming Bay Area Earthquake, 2010 update of the scenario
for a Magnitude 7.0 earthquake on the Hayward Fault.

- The online version of this report is now available at: http://www.eerinc.org/?p=856
- The 2010 update of the scenario is a Call to Action for the San Francisco
Bay Area.
- As the document states: "Ten years into the new century, we have not yet
reached an acceptable level of seismic safety."
- It is clearly necessary for earthquake design and structural professionals
to continue their advocacy.
- The goal of the Hayward Fault Initiative is to promote risk reduction locally,
by providing updated information on the consequences of a Hayward
Fault earthquake and actively encouraging risk reduction programs.
- Impacts to our area as a result of our local Rogers Fault will also be
discussed.

EERI-NC MISSION: The EERI NC Chapter is dedicated to reducing the earthquake risk in Northern California by advancing the science and practice of earthquake engineering by improving understanding of the impact of earthquakes on the physical, social, economic, political and cultural environment and by advocating comprehensive and realistic measures for reducing the harmful effects of
earthquakes.
