Preliminary Seismic Hazard Assessment of the Oral and Dental Hospital of Jenderal Soedirman University Indonesia

Abstract

The Oral and Dental Hospital of Jenderal Soedirman University was built in 2008. This building consists of 4 stories equipped with inpatient rooms, X-ray rooms, and laboratory. It is expected that with a main function as a public facility with a large number of people doing activities within it, the building has a high level of security when an earthquake occurred. This study aims to perform a preliminary seismic hazard assessment, i.e. an evaluation using a Rapid Visual Screening method and a Tier 1 Evaluation using FEMA 310. The results of the Rapid Visual Screening are a final level 1 score compared with a cut-off score of +2.00. If the final level 1 score is less than or equal to +2.00, the building requires the tier 1 evaluation. The Tier 1 Evaluation using FEMA 310 is performed to identify the potential deficiencies of the building. It consists of 3 sets of checklists that allow a rapid evaluation of the structural, nonstructural and foundation/geologic hazard elements of the building and site conditions. If the result of the tier 1 evaluation shows that the potential deficiencies of the building are identified, a more detailed evaluation of the building is recommended to perform. The results of the analysis show that from the Rapid Visual Screening method, the building has a final level 1 score of +0.3, while from the Tier 1 Evaluation there are Not-Compliant (NC) statements for structural and nonstructural components.
