16. Project on Seismic Upgrading for Buildings of
Elementary and Secondary Schools
Project was approved by the Legislation Yuan as part
of economy stimulus to expand investment in public
works in response to financial tsunami.
NT$18.3 billion was allocated for seismic upgrading of
elementary and secondary school buildings. 1,500
school buildings will have been retrofitted in four
years, from 2009 to 2012.
In order to conduct the project systematically and
effectively, NCREE was entrusted by the Ministry of
Education to establish a special office to offer support
on administration and technology. Data base was set
up to support decision making. Specification was
drafted to standardize operation procedures. Training
courses were held for dissemination.

After the earthquake, three reconnaissance teams were
sent to the disaster area.
Yu-Jing Junior High School and Yu-Jimg Vocational
School were about 30 km from the epicenter. The
distance between the two schools is about 1 km.
Three buildings without retrofit in Yu-Jing Junior High
School were found seriously damaged.
No damage was observed in the buildings with retrofit
in Yu-Jing Vocational School.

Complete loss assessment within
short time after receiving mail from
CWB and automatically send

21. Taiwan Earthquake Loss Estimation System (2/2)
Early seismic loss estimation improves the
efficiency of emergency responses
Seismic disaster simulations provides useful
data (PME, rescue & medical resources, etc.) for
disaster reduction plans
Probabilistic seismic risk assessment has been
applied in TREIF-ERA to study insurance policy
and to update risk measures
Risk assessment of highway bridges has been
applied in prioritization of retrofit sequence of
bridges of DGH, MOTC
