Abstract
This study aims to estimate the role of the temporary investigation of house damage on a middle or small scale earthquake disaster. The rapid evaluation in post-disaster safety assessment was put into practice in Ehime prefecture on 2001 Geiyo Earthquake. As the first step we cleared the actual conditions of the damaged housings on the basis of the result of the rapid evaluation in post-disaster safety assessment. As the second step we conducted a questionnaire of the applicants of the rapid evaluation in post-disaster safety assessment. As the last step we compared the rapid evaluation in post-disaster safety assessment in Ehime prefecture on 2001 Geiyo Earthquake with them on the two other earthquake disasters. We found that many of the applicants were old men and women, and that they wanted to be without anxiety, and that they wanted to get some information about their house restoration.
