Thematic International Workshop 2007 on
Feasible and Affordable Seismic Constructions in Developing Countries
１．

Background and Objectives

Mitigation of earthquake disasters is one of the keenest issues common in earthquake prone areas. FourJapanese institutes listed in Item 2 launched a new research and devel opment project entitled“Collaborative Research and Development Project for Disaster Mitigation on Network of ResearchInstitutes in Earthquake Prone Areas in Asia”, which focuses three essential research topics statedbelow in collaboration with research institutes in Indonesia, Nepal, Pakistan and Turkey. We have beenworking on three action programs (Components) under Topic 2 “Feasible and Affordable SeismicConstructions” as listed below.
Thematic International Workshop 2007 on Feasible and Affordable Seismic Constructions is organized
to share information and knowledge and to discuss on activities for next steps for fruitful achievements.
with participants from five countries connected by the video conference network and from all over theworld through the web streaming services of the World Bank.
<Research topics>
Topic 1: System for Estimation and Management of Seismic Risks
Topic 2: Feasible and Affordable Seismic Constructions
Topic 3: Strategies for Dissemination of Technologies to Communities<Action Programs (Components) under Topic 2 “Feasible and Affordable Seismic Constructions” >Component 2-1 Research with Full Scale Shaking Table Experiments on Feasible and Affordable
Seismic Constructions
Component 2-2 Bridge between Engineering and Construction Works
Component 2-3 Development of Simple and Affordable Seismic Isolation
BRI and partners organized a two-day workshop on November 22 and 23, 2006 and a thematic
workshop on seismic isolation on February 8, 2007. You can see the outline and the presentationmaterials in the web site of BRI at
