Zusammenfassung |
During the last decades, settlement activities increased in European
mountain regions. Due to the scarceness of areas suitable for development,
residential estates were extended into areas endangered by natural hazards
such as mass movements. These settlements generally show a considerable
vulnerability to tangible assets.
Integral risk management strategies to reduce the vulnerability to tangible
assets are presented for the assessment of such endangered areas.
Conventional mitigation and local structural measures are discussed with
respect to the necessary delimitation of endangered areas, the preparedness
of people and possible financial prevention. According to different natural
hazard processes (flash floods with and without bedload transport, debris
flows, land slides, rock falls and avalanches) and various structural
elements of buildings, a catalogue of local structural measures is presented
with respect to occurring process impacts and protection objectives.
Thereby, different local structural measures are classified and recommended
according to a possible implementation for newly-erected buildings and for
upgrading existing buildings, respectively. Based on these recommendations,
future needs for a sustainable and comprehensive reduction of risk in
settlement areas endangered by mass movements are outlined. Above all, this
includes a prescription of building codes and the re-introduction of an
obligatory final inspection of buildings. |
