摘要:
The seismicity of Papua New Guinea is briefly described and the effects of two recent earthquakes are examined. The existing Papua New Guinea building regulations are shown to be deficient with regard to provisions for earthquake design and the development of a new code is described. Safety in earthquakes cannot be guaranteed by new building regulations, however, unless they are supported by experienced designers and policed by competent building insepctors.
