地震造成人民生命财产损失的主要原因,是由地震引起的建筑物(绝大部分是砖房)和工程设施的破坏,以及次生灾害。国内外历次的经验告诉我们:抓好建筑物的抗震设防,提高建筑物的抗震设计,是减轻未来地震灾害损失最积极、最有效和最根本的措施。针对房屋建筑相应的抗震设计方法做了介绍和总结。 The main causes of people’s lives and property losses caused by the earthquake were the destruction of buildings (mostly brick houses) and engineering facilities caused by the earthquake, and secondary disasters. All previous experiences both at home and abroad tell us that doing a good job of seismic fortification of buildings and improving the seismic design of buildings are the most active, effective and fundamental measures to reduce the losses caused by future earthquakes. The corresponding seismic design method for housing construction is introduced and summarized.
