Company Profile
The theme of the 56th EERI Annual Meeting meeting is Ten Years After the
Northridge Earthquake. It focuses on lessons learned from the Northridge
earthquake and the evolution of earthquake risk reduction since 1994.
By any standard, the Northridge earthquake was a watershed in earthquake
mitigation practice. Direct economic losses from the Northridge earthquake were
in excess of $40 billion. The scale of the economic consequences and problems
that surfaced with respect to welded steel frame buildings, woodframe housing,
and building and business losses galvanized partnerships between universities,
industry, and government to investigate and provide answers to the questions
that were generated by the earthquake’s effects. The consequences of...
