Why reconnaissance?
Confirm that structures perform as we
intended – both original AND retrofitted
Confirm that known deficiencies really
don’t work
Look for any surprises
“Some of us used to argue that you shouldn’t really get your
structural license until you’ve chased an earthquake… No
matter how much you read the reports, the impact doesn’t
really strike you until you’ve seen the damage.” Henry Degenkolb in Connections: EERI Oral History Series, Volume 1, 1994

What do we do with reconnaissance data?
1. Gather info at the site
2. Compare the observations to what is expected based on current practice
coupled with site specific seismic data
3. Note consistencies and surprises
4. Write reports and publish
5. Compare with others’ reconnaissance data
6. Form conclusions and suggest changes
7. Test by research at Universities and others
8. Confirm effectiveness of proposed changes thru research
9. Incorporate changes into code writing process & eventually into practice
10. Confirm improved performance after next earthquake

Prepare for your site visit
Use EERI’s Post-Earthquake Investigation Field
Guide
Gather latest seismic information about the
event – ground motion data, location of
epicenter, local soil conditions, etc.
Research the known building stock at the site –
age and types of structures
Research communications capabilities at site –
cellular services, power?

While on site
Stay safe, hardhats
don’t make you
invulnerable! (remember Chuck Thiel)
Beware of aftershocks
that could occur at
any time!

Other notes - Ask yourself:
Did the soil conditions affect damage?
Is there evidence of a predominant direction of
shaking?
Was there a strong vertical component?
Would longer duration have caused more
damage?
Do you think the level of damage is consistent with
the reported level of shaking and duration?
Is the damage level consistent with nearby
buildings? What are the key damage points?

More questions:
What was sequence of damage?
What saved the building?
If the building has been retrofit, did it work?
If not retrofitted, what retrofit would have worked?
What did the EQ find that we might have missed in a
pre-EQ seismic evaluation?
If you were going to design temporary shoring, what
would you do?
