Features: Earthquake safety assessment is a legal system established by the "Seismic Disaster Prevention and Mitigation Law of the People's Republic of China," involving the safety of people's lives and property and the sustainable development of the national economy. At the same time, earthquake safety assessment work is highly professional, technologically advanced, and comprehensive. GB17741—1999 "Technical Specification for Earthquake Safety Assessment of Engineering Sites" has made clear and specific requirements for the basic data and technical approaches of earthquake safety assessment work. Since its implementation, this standard has played an important role in the selection of sites for new, expanded, and renovated construction projects, as well as large industrial plants, cities, and economic development zones, in determining seismic fortification requirements, and in formulating social and economic development plans and seismic disaster prevention and mitigation strategies.
