Hazus Estimated Annualized Earthquake Losses for the United States (FEMA P-366)

This resource provides an in-depth analysis of earthquake risk in the United States, focusing on estimating average annualized earthquake losses (AEL) and the associated factors such as casualties, debris, and shelter requirements. The report is based on Hazus 6.0, a standardized tool developed jointly by FEMA and USGS to assess seismic risk. It includes probabilistic hazard data, building damage assessment, loss computation, and details on seismic risk indicators like AEL and AELR. The study highlights various earthquake events, impacts, and potential mitigation strategies to reduce seismic risk.
