Bentley Webcast Series:
Improving Seismic Resilience — Introducing the U.S. Resiliency Council
Approach
Duration: 1 hour
Cost: Free
Available Credit: 1 PDH*
Topic details:
The fitness of our infrastructure can no longer be measured in how well it
can take the punch of an earthquake, rather in how quickly it can recover
after the fight. You don’t need to look much further than Haiti 2010,
Christchurch 2011, and more recently Nepal 2015 to see the socioeconomic
impact of ignoring resiliency. As in Christchurch, even though the codes and
construction performed as expected to achieve life safety goals, it was not
enough to achieve resiliency. Join us to learn how your role as an engineer
is changing in seismic disaster preparedness. Through the U.S. Resiliency
Council’s (USRC’s) approach, engineers can now actively help to inform and
educate owners, tenants, lenders and governments of their buildings
expected resiliency to seismic events. Modeled after the U.S. Green
Buildings Council’s LEED® rating system, the USRC helps communities
understand the vulnerability of our built environment through education,
certification of engineers and credible evaluation of expected building
performance.
Attend the webcast and you will learn:
•How USRC’s certified engineering approach helps ensure consistency
of ratings.
•How USRC’s technical auditing process for rating submissions can
ensure credibility.
•How USRC’s five-star approach to rating buildings will help owners
predict expected building safety, repair and time to regain function.
•How Bentley is committed to the success of the USRC with
incorporation of these rating methodologies in our solutions. |
