Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立臺灣科技大學 === 營建工程系 === 105 === The 1999 Jiji earthquake and 2016 Meinong earthquake in Kaohsiung caused substantial casualties and economic damage to private buildings, indicating that the seismic performance of private buildings in the Taiwan region lacked adequate improvement over the past 17 years. An earthquake simulation analysis involving building damage probability, total damaged floor area, and number of buildings damaged is conducted using the Taiwan Earthquake Loss Estimation System (TELES). In addition, this study also estimates the total construction project funding required by private buildings to comply with the seismic performance standard in Taiwan, according to the latest construction costs. An annual budget scheduling model for seismic assessment, retrofitting, and reconstruction work is planned after exploring feasible government and civil funding sources, while taking into account factors such as inflation. Using the findings of the aforementioned studies as a blueprint, the public’s burden, possible obstacles, and the possible extent and manner in which the public and private sectors can provide support are evaluated; at the same time, the Urban Renewal Act, Housing Act, Building Act, and the drafts currently still under review at the Legislative Yuan (Promotion Bill for the Seismic Assessment and Retrofitting of Existing Legal Buildings, Special Bill for Improving the Structural Safety of National Old Buildings) are reviewed and integrated; finally, the draft of the Act for the Promotion of Seismic Assessment and Retrofitting of Existing Buildings is planned accordingly, thus safeguarding people’s lives and property to promote national development and stability.
