Publication: International Efforts in Lifeline Earthquake Engineering
Abstract
This paper focuses on damage to water supply pipelines during the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake. Severe damage occurred not only to houses and buildings, but also lifeline facilities (including water supply facilities) by this earthquake and tsunami. Water supply pipelines were damaged by strong ground motion and/or soil liquefaction. Outline of the damage is given first. Then the damage analysis is done by using GIS database of water supply pipelines and its damage. Lessons learned regarding the earthquake performance of water supply pipeline are summarized.
