Investigation in Rural Buildings’ Damage Caused by Local Strong Wind in Suihua

Abstract:

In May 15th 2010, a strong wind occurred in Suihua, which caused severe damage of building. In order to get information about damage of buildings caused by strong wind, an investigation was conducted in May 18th 2010. Through observing and interviewing, the first-hand information on the damage of rural buildings subjected to local strong wind were got. Combined with the investigation results after the disaster, an introduction to the hazard around the local strong wind region in Suihua is reported. For half-timber houses, the enclosure structure totally damaged and the gable wall was almost totally broken. For masonry-timber structure buildings, the whole structure collapsed in the strong wind. Some conclusions were got: Some buildings conforming to design code is better than what were anticipated, but the rural buildings without official design damaged serious.
