  • About the author

By starting with the geological environmental conditions and with reference to the numerous detailed and accurate data of Wenchuan Earthquake and post-quake geological disaster survey data, the book explains profound theories in simple language concerning the principle, causes and status of damaged highways in the disaster areas of Wenchuan Earthquake, providing good technical support for post-disaster highway reconstruction and post-quake geological disaster prevention. With the text supported by illustration, the book includes 14 chapters covering such major contents as overview of geological disasters, surface rupture zones and liquefaction, rockfalls and landslides induced by earthquake and post-quake secondary debris flow, and encloses a large number of valuable examples of damaged highways.

As the valuable historical data and research materials, the book provides reference for the relevant researchers and concerned people.

Chen Lesheng, Chief Engineer of Sichuan Provincial Transportation Department, engaged, for years, in survey, design and construction of highways, bridges and tunnels and recently focusing on seismic research in highways of Wenchuan Earthquake.
