setting

zones under

and strong intraplate
deformation

hazard - 7 regions and faults

faults)

(subduction – strongest
earthquakes)

strike/slip faults)

quiet)

1831BC and 1979?

fine enough)

Exposure – provinces
• 22 provinces + 5 autonomous
regions + 4 municipalities

Vulnerability
• relationship between ground shaking and damage ratio
• empirical approach
- observed loss data very limited
- mainly intensity based (MMI, JMA etc.)
- Seismic Intensity Zoning Map of China by CSB (1990)
• engineering approach
- design codes, construction practices and standards
- mainly instrument based (PGA, PGV, Sa etc.)
- Seismic Zoning Map of China by CSB (1999)
• whole or component/assembly approach

Loss calculation
• RGCER’s Atlas of Earthquake Risk Prediction in China 1995
• RGCER’s loss modelling results based on GDP/population
data
• historic experience long but potentially incomplete
• deterministic: analysis of postulated or historic events
• probabilistic: modelling of ‘synthetic’ events to capture full
hazard potential
• financial/statistical component

Loss calculation
• RGCER’s
expected
building losses
between 1995
and 2005

Loss calculation - results
• loss exceedance
curves
loss ($)
Model 3
• uncertainty (best
estimate, PML,
upper bound…)
Model 2
• several models
Model 1
• model
certification?
return period of loss (years)
The information contained in this document is strictly proprietary and confidential. ©Benfield 2003
Conclusions - way forward
• risk quantification (via catastrophe modelling) is the first step of
any risk transfer
• cat models are relatively complex
• uncertainty needs to be measured and understood
• how many models are we going to see?
• is there a role for certification?
• government role in risk transfer?
