Chapter 4 Seismic Risk Assessment The Project for Assessment of Earthquake Disaster Risk for the Kathmandu Valley in Nepal Final Report (Main Report) Chapter 4 Seismic Risk Assessment Seismic risk assessment was carried out as the update of the risk assessment of 2002 JICA project of “The Study on Earthquake Disaster Mitigation in the Kathmandu Valley” for the purpose of providing basic information for the formulation of disaster risk reduction and management plans for pilot municipalities. The assessment was performed based on the latest available data and taking into account the new research results on risk assessment as well as the characteristics of ground motion, building damage and human casualties caused by the Gorkha Earthquake, which occurred on 25 April 2015, right before the commencement of the project. The main features of risk assessment of this project are summarized as below. No building inventory, which is important for risk assessment, exists in KV. In order to establish building inventory, building survey for all buildings was made by the project for former Lalitpur Sub-metropolitan City and Bhaktapur municipality. In addition, building information for all buildings in Budhanilkantha and former Karyabinayak municipalities was collected. The building inventory for the other municipalities were created by estimation based on satellite image and sample structure type survey. The damage function of buildings was developed based on the building damage data of the Gorkha Earthquake as well as the seismic resistant capacity analysis of typical structures of Nepal. Nonlinear flexural deformation of RC piers subject to seismic excitation was estimated by a statistical method and was used to classify the damage degree of bridges. Human casualties were estimated based on the death rate and injured rate of the Gorkha Earthquake for different damage levels and different structure types. Three earthquake occurrence scenes: night, weekday noon and weekend afternoon, were considered for human casualty estimation. Building damage and human casualties were also estimated for 2030 for the purpose of determination of disaster risk reduction target, assuming different cases of structure type distribution. The contents of seismic risk assessment cover structural damage of buildings, roads, bridges, 4-1 The Project for Assessment of Earthquake Disaster Risk for the Kathmandu Valley in Nepal Final Report (Main Report) water supply pipelines, sewage pipelines, power poles and mobile base transceiver station (BTS) towers as well as human casualties and the direct economic loss and impact on the tourism industry. The summary of risk assessment results is shown in Table 4.1 Seismic risk assessment results from one scenario ground motion are shown in the main report as an example. A map book, which includes all of the risk assessment results together with the basic information for seismic hazard and risk assessment as well as seismic hazard results, was compiled for easy reference. The contents of the map book are given in Table 4.2. REMARKS The scenario earthquakes are not the prediction of future earthquakes. Risk assessment was carried out based on scientific research and investigation results but with inevitable assumptions. Its results might have uncertainties and are not the guarantee of the future damage of a scenario earthquake. The purpose of risk assessment is to provide basic information for the development of disaster risk reduction and management plan of pilot municipalities in KV. 4-2 The Project for Assessment of Earthquake Disaster Risk for the Kathmandu Valley in Nepal Final Report (Main Report) Table 4.1 Summary of risk assessment results Physical Damage Economic Loss (mil.

  • Peasantry in Nepal
    92 Chapter 4 Chapter 4 Peasantry in Kathmandu Valley and Its Southern Ridges 4.1 Introduction From ancient times, different societies of caste/ethnicity have been adopting various strategies for ac- quiring a better livelihood in Nepal. Agriculture was, and is, the main strategy. The predominant form of agriculture practised throughout the hilly area of the Nepal is crop farming, livestock and forestry at the subsistence level. Kathmandu valley including Lalitpur district is no exception. The making of handicrafts used to be the secondary occupation in the urban areas of the district. People in the montane and the rural part of the district was more dependent upon the forest resources for subsidiary income. Cutting firewood, making khuwa (solidified concentrated milk cream) and selling them in the cities was also a part of the livelihood for the peasants in rural areas. However, since the past few decades peasants/rural households who depended on subsistence farming have faced greater hardships in earning their livelihoods from farming alone due to rapid population growth and degradation of the natural resource base; mainly land and forest. As a result, they have to look for other alternatives to make living. With the development of local markets and road network, people started to give more emphasis to various nonfarm works as their secondary occupation that would not only support farming but also generate subsidiary cash income. Thus, undertaking nonfarm work has become a main strategy for a better livelihood in these regions. With the introduction of dairy farming along with credit and marketing support under the dairy development policy of the government, small scale peasant dairy farming has flourished in these montane regions.

  • WASH Cluster Nepal 4W - May 12Th 2015
    WASH Cluster Nepal 4W - May 12th 2015 Please find following the analysis of the 4W data – May 12th Introduction (Round 2) This is the second round of the 4W analysis. As this is the second round and still early in the emergency response, many agencies are still planning their interventions and caseloads, hence much of the data is understandably incomplete. In the coming week/s we will receive far more comprehensive partner data and will be able to show realistic gaps. In addition, we are receiving better affected population data and there are many ongoing assessments, the results of which will help us to understand both the response data and the affected population data and enable us to deliver a far more profound analysis of the WASH response. Please assist us as we have a lot of information gaps in the data provided so far and hence the maps are not yet providing a true picture of the response. We would like to quickly move to VDC mapping including planned/reached beneficiaries. Since the first round of reporting, agencies have provided substantially more VDC‐level data – as of today, of 740 WASH activities identified, 546 of these (74%) are matched to an identified VDC ‐ this is a big improvement from last week (which had VDC data for 192 of 445 activities, or 43%) The Highlights ・ 47 Organisations – number of organisations that reported in Round 1 and/or Round 2 of the WASH 4W ・ 206 VDCs – where WASH interventions taking place/planned (in 15 districts) 4W – WASH May 12th 2015 Water0B Spread of water activities ‐ targeted Temporary

  • Hydrological Analysis of the Catchment Area of Dhap Dam
    Bulletin of Nepal Hydrogeological Association, Vol. 5, September 2020 Singh JL, Subedi NP, 2020 Hydrological analysis of the catchment area of Dhap Dam Jaya Laxmi Singh1* and Narayan Prasad Subedi1 1 Project Implementation Irrigation Unit (PIIU), Bagmati River Basin Improvement Project (BRBIP), Guheswori, Kathmandu *Corresponding e-mail: [email protected] Received: 22 April 2020/Accepted: 4 September 2020 ABSTRACT Indeed, the hydrological investigation is the preliminary study, essentially a part of civil construction to be conducted before planning and designing of the hydraulic structure. Quantification of reservoir release requires a reliable estimate of hydrological data. Additionally, estimating flood frequency discharge is essential for economic planning and safe design. The present study is based on the rainwater harvesting project of Dhap dam. Due to certain limitations of the catchment (ungauged), direct measurements of hydrological parameters are not available. The study has adopted available rainfall data recorded (Nagarkot, Kathmandu airport and Sundarijal) in the Department of hydrology and Meteorology (DHM) near the project to determine the hydrological parameters at the project site. The project catchment lies within the Bagmati River Basin of Shivpuri Nagarjun National Park (SNNP). The catchment is located in Kathmandu district, Central Development Region of Nepal. The catchment area of the project is 0.8 Km2. This is about 4.9% of the mother catchment area concerning the Sundarijal gauging station. This study focused carrying out of necessary hydrological investigations, such as estimation of Probable Maximum Precipitation (PMP), Probable Maximum Flood (PMF), design flood hydrographs corresponding to storm events with different return periods (2, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 1000 and 1000) years using log domain.
