Building requirements and structural damage

This caninclude actions taken to protect against earthquakes, blizzards, hurricanes, etc.Start by conducting research around your community/location for examples of mitigation and structure protection. Theseexamples may include design of services and roads, land-use regulation, flood control, levees, dams, updated buildingcodes, earthquake resistant community buildings, warming shelters, evacuation shelters, and structural reinforcement ofbuilding materials.Take photographs of what you find so that you can show your professor what your area has done to address the issue.Using what you learned about your community and what you learned about past disasters from this course, write a casestudy, a minimum of four pages in length, that addresses the following points.Explain what has been done with regard to mitigation, recovery, and/or response efforts within your community.Explain who conducted these efforts and the vulnerabilities they faced in their community, and include the role theseindividuals or groups play with mitigating, responding, and/or recovering from the risk.Research at least one major, historical disaster that resulted in structural damage (this is not limited to your community).Explain the event that caused the damage and the results. What collaborative efforts were employed during the historical disaster you researched?What can your community learn from the past disaster you researched?Consider the legal issues that would apply to those who did not follow land-use or building code requirements. Whenresearching the mitigation and or structure protection occurring in your area or the location you choose, also discuss theorganizations that would be involved with ensuring compliance as well as what sanctions would apply for those whowere out of compliance.Your paper should be a minimum of four pages in length not counting the title and reference pages. You are required to usea minimum of three outside sources as part of your case study. One outside source must be from the Waldorf OnlineLibrary. All sources, including the textbook, must be cited and referenced according to APA guidelines.Additionally, include at least four visual aids/images that support your content (one 4-by-4-inch image per page maximum).Please incorporate those into your paper in APA format
