Abstract

Because of the geographical conditions, Taiwan faces serious threats and unpredictable disasters from the nature, such as earthquake, typhoon and flood disaster throughout the whole year. Up to today, based on statistical data of 60 years, the annual average damages caused by typhoon each year were 3.5 times than those caused by others and those caused by floods were even dozens. Therefore, Taiwan is deeply in need of a complete and fast precaution mechanism with emergency flood disaster. In general, one of the most ways to prevent flood is pilling sandbags as a temporary barrier right at the water inlet way of each house or basement driveway. This study applies the concept of disaster management to adjudge the flooding prevention treatment, also illustrates the lateral static water pressure measurement and analysis of temporary sandbags barrier facility. With the help of analyze and calculation of the actual rainfall, the reality simulation of the damage caused by the disaster can be improved dramatically. This will be the basis for planning the advanced disaster prevention and disaster reduction of each city.
