Prepared by the Technical Council on Lifeline Earthquake Engineering of ASCE and the Japan Society of Civil Engineers On August 15, 2007, at 6:40 p.m. local time, a magnitude 8.0 earthquake occurred off the coast of southern Peru, about 145 km from Lima. More than 4,500 aftershocks had been registered as of August 30, 2007, 30 of them had Modified Mercalli Intensity between 3 and 5. The social and economic impact of the earthquake was significant—519 people died and more than 1,300 were injured. Tens of thousands of homes, churches, schools, and hospitals collapsed or were damaged. The estimated economic losses, including to lifeline infrastructure, were about US

Pressure vessels are closed containers designed to hold gases or liquids at a pressure substantially different from the ambient pressure. They have a variety of applications in industry, including in oil refineries, nuclear reactors, vehicle airbrake reservoirs, and more. The pressure differential with such vessels is dangerous, and due to the risk of accident and fatality around their use, the design, manufacture, operation and inspection of pressure vessels is regulated by engineering authorities and guided by legal codes and standards. Pressure Vessel Design Manual is a solutions-

Rainwater tank systems have been widely adopted across the world to provide a safe local source of water in underdeveloped rural areas, and as a substitution for mains water for non potable end uses in water stressed urban areas. They also provide flood control in monsoonal climates like Korea or in combined sewer systems like in Germany. The importance of these systems in cities has grown, as water managers seek to provide a range of decentralised solutions to supply constraints of current water supply systems, whilst reducing the impact of urban development on the natural environment, and increasing resilience to climate change. Rainwater Tank Systems for Urban Water Supply is based on a comprehensive, multi-million dollar research program that was undertaken in South East Queensland (SEQ) Australia in response to the Millennium drought when the water supply level in the regions drinking water dams dropped to 17% in July 2007 and the area came close to running out of water.
