Risco sísmico na Região Nordeste do Brasil

Abstract: O território brasileiro apresenta baixa atividade sísmica, característica de região tectônica intra-placas. Entretanto, os efeitos dos sismos não podem ser simplesmente desconsiderados em projetos de engenharia. Assim, é apresentado neste trabalho um estudo da sismicidade da região Nordeste do Brasil, que por estar posicionada próxima à falha do Atlântico Central, a leva a apresentar uma taxa de atividade sísmica com con- tinuidade de ocorrência mais alta do que a de outras regiões brasileiras. Dentro deste co… Show more

“…This type of construction can be very vulnerable to one of the most destructive natural phenomena: earthquakes. According to Santos et al [5] in the smaller buildings of 20 stories, the influence of seismic activity may be as important as the effects of wind. Brazil is largely in the central region of the South American Plate, which is a stable area.…”
