Earthquake Vulnerability Assessment for RCC Buildings of Guwahati City using Rapid Visual Screening
Abstract The city of Guwahati in north-east India falls under seismic zone V and is located in Assam gap of Himalaya. It has historically witnessed devastating earthquakes up to 8.7 on the Richter scale in 1897 and 1950. Unplanned rapid urbanization has increased its seismic vulnerability of life and property.
