| Zusammenfassung |
A large part of the residential areas in Turkey are at risk from earthquakes.
The main factors that threaten residential areas during an earthquake are
poor quality building stock and soil problems. Liquefaction, loss of bearing
capacity, amplification, slope failure, and landslide hazards must be taken
into account for residential areas that are close to fault zones and covered
with younger sediments. Analyzing these hazards separately and then combining
the analyses would ensure a more realistic risk evaluation according to
population density than analyzing several risks based on a single parameter.
In this study, an integrated seismic risk analysis of central Eskişehir
was performed based on two earthquake related parameters, liquefaction and
amplification. The analysis used a simple weighting method. Other
earthquake-related problems such as loss of bearing capacity, landslides, and
slope failures are not significant for Eskişehir because of the
geological and the topographical conditions of the region. According to the
integrated seismic risk analysis of the Eskişehir residential area, the
populated area is found to be generally at medium to high risk during a
potential earthquake. |
