BPA, Final Report on Seismic Performance Evaluation Service for Small Buildings at Busan Port ... All 23 Buildings Safe
[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Hwang Du-yeol] Busan Port Authority (BPA) recently evaluated the seismic performance of small-scale buildings within Busan Port and confirmed that all 23 buildings are safe facilities against earthquakes.
As the disaster management authority designated by the "Earthquake and Volcanic Disaster Countermeasures Act," BPA has been investigating and evaluating whether 261 managed buildings have earthquake-resistant facilities in stages since 2016.
With the completion of the evaluation of the 23 buildings, the seismic performance assessment of all buildings has been completed.
The Busan area, where Busan Port is located, is the same fault zone as the Gyeongju earthquake in 2016, which registered a magnitude of 5.8, and there has been at least one earthquake annually until recently, continuously raising the need for preparedness against natural disasters.
