Romania Hazard Risk Mitigation & Emergency Preparedness

Miyamoto International has provided a quality control program for the earthquake engineering and construction of 61 buildings in 14 different counties of Romania, from Bucharest in the south to Iasi in the north. The project also includes monitoring 20 design and construction seismic retrofit contracts, as well as monitoring the construction supervision of 84 seismic retrofit projects. Miyamoto also has implemented and conducted a construction quality assurance program for Romania. The buildings involved in this project are key public-sector institutions, including fire stations, schools, hospitals, historic or cultural heritage buildings and emergency response centers. This program is considered to be the cornerstone of an earthquake disaster mitigation program for the region.
