Study of Various Problems Related to Earthquake-Resistant Structures of Production Facilities

Abstract

In the event of earthquake damage to production facilities, there are a variety of possible effects, such as the impact on nearby residents due to secondary disasters such as fires, explosions, and leaks, and the impoverishment of people’s lives due to stagnation of economic activities and bankruptcy of companies. Although the government and local governments have made progress in earthquake-resistant buildings designed according to the old earthquake resistance standards, the progress of production facilities has been slow. This paper examines and shows the problems of production facilities in order to provide incentives for their seismic retrofitting.
