Socioeconomic and Political Considerations in Developing Earthquake Damage Scenarios in Urban Areas hazards to millions of unsuspecting urban dwellers. If cities and their inhabitants are to be protected from the devastation earthquakes can cause, this hazard must be understood and the risk reduced. The earthquake damage scenario (EDS) is a key tool to achieve both these ends.

Estimation of Earthquake Damage to Buildings and Other Structures in Large Urban Areas, such as unemployment, loss of taxes, shutdown of factories due to loss of supplies, and automobile damage. These large expected dollar losses are of concern to facility owners, insurers, and government officials.

Any city or developed urban area may be threatened by these hazards, depending on the seismogenic conditions of the region (see Figure 1). In this paper, I discuss
