Recent natural disasters including earthquakes in Chili, Haiti, New Zealand and Japan have highlighted the necessity for civil and structural engineers to rethink their risk analysis strategy for critical infrastructure projects

Recent natural disasters including earthquakes in Chili, Haiti, New Zealand and Japan have highlighted the necessity for civil and structural engineers to rethink their risk analysis strategy for critical infrastructure projects.

 

Besides these natural disasters, the engineer also has to be vigilant to prevent disasters resulting in injury, loss of life and economic hardship when designing structures.

 

An example of one such “man made” disaster was the collapse of two aerial walkways in the Kansas City Hyatt Regency Hotel in 1981.

 

You are required to investigate this disaster using web based and documentary text and present a concise report of no more than 2000 words paying particular attention to the force equilibrium and the analysis of this simple structure. You must report the facts, comment on the reasons for collapse and state your conclusions on cause and liability, which must be drawn from your research.

 

As a result of this and similar disasters, bodies such as SCOSS have been set up. Your report should also include a discussion and conclusions as to your opinions on the effectiveness or otherwise of such investigative bodies.
