This paper reviews the state of the art in using benefit-cost analysis (BCA) to inform earthquake risk reduction decisions by building owners and policymakers. The goal is to provide a roadmap for the application and future development of BCA methods and tools for earthquake risk reduction. Our review covers three earthquake risk reduction measures: adopting up-to-date building codes for new construction, designing new buildings to exceed code requirements, and retrofitting deficient existing buildings. We highlight the factors that influence the cost-effectiveness of building design and retrofit, as well as tactics for increasing the cost-effectiveness of risk reduction strategies. We also present BCA results, methods, and data sources used in the literature to help researchers and practitioners design and conduct a reliable and robust BCA study. In the process, we develop a set of opportunities and challenges for applying BCA to new areas of research, as well as key gaps and limitations in current BCA approaches, including further investigation of above-code design, incorporation of code implementation and enforcement into BCA, quantification of environmental benefits of seismic retrofits, and optimization of seismic retrofits with energy upgrades. Overall, our review provides practical guidance and useful insights into BCA with the goal of increasing the earthquake resilience and economic efficiency of buildings in the United States.

Accurate forecasts and estimates of disaster debris are critical for effective debris management planning. However, detailed postdisaster waste data to validate and improve debris predictions is often unavailable. In this study, a postdisaster waste dataset collected in Beaumont, Texas, following widespread flooding from Hurricane Harvey that included debris tonnages and coordinate locations of each debris removal in residential areas was investigated. The dataset was utilized to quantify the amount of debris produced, identify the factors that influenced debris generation in different areas of the city, and compare Beaumont debris tonnages to predictive models. The study found that the type of flooding (riverine versus urban) had the highest influence on debris generation. Riverine flooded areas generated twice the debris tonnage as urban flooded areas. Elevation appeared to influence debris generation when considered with the type of flooding. FEMA’s correlation for flooded personal property was within the same magnitude of debris quantities, while other methods significantly overpredicted debris quantities (up to one order of magnitude) due to their generality. However, they can be adapted for flood-generated debris. Urban flooding is an increasingly prevalent issue following a natural hazard and generates considerable amounts of debris, but is not addressed in current disaster management plans. Estimation methods that consider urban flooding should be developed.
