6 (Help text) For example, the facility address may be the front door, but the damage location may be at a different location within the building grounds, or the meeting point may be different than the main facility address. Please provide point of contact information.

7 Functionality: Generate only if “Earthquake”, “Tsunami”, or “Volcanic eruption” were selected on the Incident Information form.

8 (Help text) When load-bearing walls are not designed to resist lateral force imposed by earthquakes. These common walls are typically made of masonry and are not reinforced. Shear failure is observed by the developments of diagonal cracking during earthquakes. When there are wall openings, cracks generally start from four corners of the opening. If the earthquake shaking is severe enough, the in-plane cracking may develop into an out-of-plane collapse.

9 (Help text) Damage may be caused simply by inadequate reinforcement. The absence of adequate structural reinforcement often leads to non-ductile structural failures. A structure is prone to significant failure in the absence of strength or the ability to deform (change in shape or form under stress or strain). Ductility in a building is commonly achieved by using detailed reinforcement in locations where the failure potential is high, such as beam-column connections, allowing for safe lateral deformation without collapse.

10 (Help text) Deformed columns caused by the Short Columns Effect when a less than the typical column height in a structure is present. Uneven ground level, intermediate floor levels, and infill wall openings are typical reasons for their presence. Short columns are stiffer when compared to tall columns, and therefore more brittle. They attract large seismic forces, leading to severe damage and failure if they are not designed and/or reinforced appropriately.

11 (Help text) Damage due to soft-story levels of a building where that level has noticeable stiffness/strength reduction in comparison to floors above or below. They can be present in mixed-use buildings that incorporate large open spaces. Examples include buildings with lower levels used as parking garages and commercial spaces for other uses. Due to their weak lateral load resistance, they often lead to collapse during an earthquake due to their low lateral strength, acting as a soft/weak story, unless they are anchored or strengthened to provide the necessary lateral resistance. Buildings built on stilts attached to the foundation are particularly vulnerable. This form of construction is widely used on sloped ground or to provide ventilation or protection from storm surge.

12 (Help text) By push and pull the ground, and earthquake can lead to ground displacement and tearing of a surface. The surface rupture can cause other hazards, as well as damage to roads and buildings.

92 Functionality: Uploaded photos create a photo sheet based on the file and the fields provided; photos should be managed through a photo document library. Allow for multiple entries. (Help Text): Photos communicate contextual information for staff involved in award development and reporting. Tips for taking good photos: Take several wide-view photos of the entire facility from multiple angles. For example, photograph road damage from both ends of the road. Look beyond the damaged element and consider the surrounding area. Wide shots of the area or facility are important for context for the up-close pictures of damaged components. This context is helpful to assess both damage and scope considerations. Show context when photographing structures that may be historic (For example: If a damaged culvert is within a stone structure, include the whole structure in the photo, not just the inside of the dented culvert). Take photos of Staging and Access Areas. Take zoomed-out photos to capture the area surrounding the facility (this assists with environmental reviews). Take wide-view photo of each component, capturing the entire component. Take close-up photos of each damaged component to show details. Include an item to indicate size, such as a traffic cone, tape measure, or pen. Capture distinctive, stationary features to indicate position, such as flags, signs, cones, desks, or trees. When taking multiple photos, ensure reference items help a reader “stitch together” the scene. When taking photos inside structures, take photos in a panoramic style. Ensure lighting and perspective allows a viewer to clearly see damage. Document all angles (north, south, east, west) and include GPS coordinates and perspective (e.g., facing East, from the West) on each photo. Label photos by the name of facility and component; include the name and description of what is in the photo; include annotations in the photo to highlight the damage (arrows, circles, etc.). Ensure that any site identifier is consistently used in submitting component information and photographs from the inspection.
