HAZUS-MH MR3 FAQs: Earthquake Model Running and Analysis

How can I model a complex of five buildings of different vintages and construction types?

For the best results in HAZUS, buildings that have significantly different characteristics should be entered as separate buildings since damages and the effects of impacts are caused by the characteristics of both a building and an event. Users can develop their own inventory or "portfolio" if they are interested in analyzing a specific set of buildings.

For additional information, the HAZUS Earthquake Technical Manual, as well as other HAZUS Manuals and guidance materials are available for download from the HAZUS Resources.
