In early October 2016 Hurricane Matthew crossed North Caroline as a category 1 storm with some areas receiving 15-18 inches of rainfall on already saturated soil. The NIST-funded Center for Risk-Based Community Resilience Planning teamed with researchers

A Computable General Equilibrium Model of Cedar Rapids

September 27, 2018
Author(s)
Jennifer Helgeson, Juan Fung, Cheyney O'Fallon, David Webb, Harvey Cutler
This report presents the development of a Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model for the regional economy of Cedar Rapids, Iowa. The general approach that this case study takes is outlined in Helgeson et al. [1] as a method to quantify the net co

Siamak Sattar, Therese P. McAllister, Katherine J. Johnson, Christopher T. Clavin, Christopher L. Segura, Steven L. McCabe, Juan F. Fung, Leslie Abrahams, Emily Sylak-Glassman , Marc L. Levitan, Kenneth W. Harrison, John L. Harris
The performance of buildings in our communities depends on multiple factors including the availability of supporting infrastructure, the original design, the current condition and capacity to resist hazard impacts, and the ability to recover functionality

Cost Estimates for the Seismic Retrofit of Federally Owned and Leased Buildings

June 25, 2018
Author(s)
Juan F. Fung, David T. Butry, Siamak Sattar, Steven L. McCabe
Presidential Executive Order 13717, Establishing a Federal Earthquake Risk Management Standard, encourages federal agencies to “enhance resilience…[to] future earthquakes” by evaluating and retrofitting existing federal buildings based on current existing

Estimating Structural Seismic Retrofit Costs for Federal Buildings

June 14, 2018
Author(s)
Juan F. Fung, David T. Butry, Siamak Sattar, Steven L. McCabe
In NIST TN 1973 [1], we develop a methodology for estimating seismic retrofit costs. The general approach is to build a predictive model of seismic retrofit costs that (1) captures the essential factors that drive costs, such as building construction type

The Costs and Losses of Wildfires

November 2, 2017
Author(s)
Douglas S. Thomas, David T. Butry, Stanley W. Gilbert, David H. Webb, Juan F. Fung
This report enumerates all possible costs of wildfire management and wildfire-related losses. It, further, compiles estimates or proposes methods for estimating the costs and losses identified. These estimates can be used for C+NVC modeling, and can also
