The conference, held on the 10th anniversary of the 1993 Long Beach earthquake, presented new research on the seismic performance of lifelines, new standards and codes that have been developed, and major lifeline projects that have been rehabilitated, designed, and constructed. The lifeline performance of the Trans-Alaska Pipeline during the November 3, 2002, Denali Fault earthquake demonstrates how lifelines properly designed and constructed for severe earthquake ground motions can perform well. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTopics include: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003elifeline management and policy issues; \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003etransportation system preparedness, response, and recovery; \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eretrofit and policy issues with the Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) system; \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003epost-earthquake investigations and lifeline performance during earthquakes; \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003elifeline guides and codes; \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eperformance of ports and wharves; \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ewater and waste water systems and components; \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ethe Trans-Alaska Pipeline and the 2002 Denali Fault Earthquake; \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eelectric power guidelines and performance of equipment; \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003edesign, mitigation, and performance of underground pipelines; \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eseismic hazard and risk issues; \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eseismic risk analysis of highway systems; \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003egeotechnical lifeline issues; and \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003einnovative mitigation of bridges.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"American Society of Civil Engineers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47011148726512,"sku":"9780784406878","price":138.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780784406878","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
