Post-Earthquake Damage Investigations

  • Post-earthquake reconnaissance following many domestic and international earthquakes; personal observations of thousands of earthquake design and construction successes and failures
  • Post-earthquake damage investigations including detailed site documentation with photos, video, field measurements, and material sampling
  • Literature search for relevant information such as performance of similar structures, structural details, or materials in past earthquakes
  • Investigate plausible earthquake performance scenarios
  • Perform computer analyses to evaluate seismic performance hypotheses
  • E. Fierro was first earthquake engineer to arrive in Port-au-Prince, Haiti following the 2010 Haiti Earthquake
