Abstract
Buried life supply system includes water supply system, power system, communication system, gas system, and sewer system, etc. Each of the systems has close relationship to our daily life.After Chi-Chi earthquake, it is known that the damage of buried life supply system not only could influence our life function directly, but also it could destroy our life and fortune immediately.The present thesis is aimed to give the readers an introduction of different pipeline destruction modes in recent researches. There are three major types of damage mechanisms, which are named fault rupture, wave propagation, and soil liquefaction. The key parameters associated with damage evaluation consist of fault dip distance, peak ground velocity, and liquefaction potential index.In chapter three, the present thesis will introduce the buried pipeline codes in the world, and they are Japan, Main China and Taiwan.Chapter four shows the fragility curves including analytical method and empirical method.
