  1. Wind Hazard Modeling and the HAZUS Wind ModelPart III Carol Hill Louisiana State University November 15, 2004

  2. What are Models Used For? • Planning • Pre-Disaster Preparedness • Disaster Response • Community Rebuilding

  3. Who Needs Modeled Scenario Information? • Community Planners • Local, State, Federal Officials • Emergency Managers/EOC • Who Else?

  4. Available Reports HAZUS Wind Model

  5. Total Community Building Exposure

  6. Residential Dollar Exposure

  7. 100 Year Event Wind Speeds

  8. Total Loss – 100 Year Event

  9. Hospital Loss of Use (Days)

  10. Brick and Wood Debris – Tons

  11. Tree Debris - Tons

  12. Mitigation Strategy Fully Mitigated Example

  13. Storm Shutters

  14. Roof-Wall Connection Straps

  15. Secondary Water Resistance

  16. Percent Decreases in the Per Storm Average Building Damage State Due to Mitigation (Minimum/Average/Maximum) – Residential Buildings *Dade County roof sheathing nail pattern, install more wind-resistant shingles and apply secondary water resistance

  17. Baton Rouge Mitigated Scenario

  18. Non-Mitigated Losses

  19. Summary

  20. Summary • GIS is a powerful tool to spatially display, interpret, manipulate data • Model results can only be as good as model inputs • HAZUS is a powerful, calibrated, engineering-based load vs. resistance model that provides tools for understanding building damage

  21. Summary • Judgment is still needed for analysis • As more powerful tools are available, the information needs of agencies and organizations increase • Incorporation of modeled damage results into building codes (i.e. Mitigation Strategies) may prevent damage and loss
