“…For earthquakes, the open source CAPRA model is modified to model the earthquake AAL (Cardona, Ordaz, & Reinoso, 2012;World Bank, 2018). First, the CRISIS2007 software is used to create event sets for different annual return periods (Mousavi et al, 2014;Ordaz et al, 2013).…”

Traditionally, building-level risk reduction measures aim to address the risk of a single hazard type, for instance, through building codes (Cutter et al., 2015; Daniell, 2015; Shreve & Kelman, 2014). However, many countries face the risk of multiple disasters (Cutter et al., 2015; De Ruiter et al., 2020). Floods and earthquakes are often the hazard types with the highest economic damages, especially in developing countries (Zorn, 2018), and their damages are likely to continue to increase in the future (Bilham, 2009; Cutter et al., 2015; Winsemius et al., 2016). The increase in the damages in the future is due to both a projected increase in the frequency of (climate-driven) hazards (in the case of floods), and also due to increasing exposure in vulnerable areas (Balica et al., 2015). This is expected to continue in the future, with projections estimating that the world's population will have doubled between 1950 and 2050, which requires the construction of an additional 1 billion housing units (Bilham, 2009). Moreover, social inequalities cause developing countries and the poor to suffer disproportionally from the impacts of natural hazards (

“…Liquefaction-induced lateral spreading displacement was evaluated probabilistically for a site in the south of Iran by Kavand and Haeri (2009). Koike et al (2004), Mousavi et al (2014) and (Farahani et al, 2020) also evaluated liquefaction-induced displacement of Tehran, Azerbaijan and Asaluyeh, respectively, in order to assess the risk of the gas pipelines.…”

Abstract. Iran is located on the Alpide earthquake belt, in the active collision zone between the Eurasian and Arabian plates. This issue makes Iran a country that suffers from geotechnical seismic hazards associated with frequent destructive earthquakes. Also, according to the rapid growth of population and demands for construction lifelines, the risk assessment studies which should be carried out in order to reduce the probable damages is necessary. The most important destructive effects of earthquakes on lifelines are transient ground displacements and permanent ground deformations. The availability of the map of the displacements caused by liquefaction, landslide, and surface fault rupture can be a useful reference for researchers and engineers who want to carry out a risk assessment project for each specific region of the country. In this study, the mentioned precise maps by using a considerable number of GIS-based analyses and by employing HAZUS methodology, are produced and presented. It is important to note that a required accuracy for risk assessment is approximately around the macro scale. So, in order to produce a suitable map for risk assessment goals, in terms of accuracy, the GIS-based analyses are employed to mapping all spread of Iran.
