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

This report analyzes earthquake risk across the United States by estimating average annualized earthquake losses (AEL) and related impacts such as casualties, debris, and shelter needs. Utilizing Hazus 6.0, a FEMA and USGS-developed tool, it provides probabilistic seismic hazard data, building damage assessments, and loss computations. The document highlights seismic risk indicators like AEL and AELR, discusses notable earthquake events, and outlines potential mitigation strategies for reducing seismic risk.
