CIVIL ENGINEERING JSCE • Critical Urban Infrastructure Handbook Hamada “This handbook provides a comprehensive overview of the design, construction, and management of critical infrastructures that underpin economic and socioeconomic activities in urban cities. All major infrastructures are covered: water supply, sewerage, gas, electricity, and telecommunication. The contributors of the handbook have profound knowledge and experience in individual fields and discuss the key essentials of C infrastructure engineering and risk management in a concise manner. A unique aspect of this handbook is the disaster prevention and mitigation section, which is based on a r long history of learned lessons dealing with the past disasters in Japan. This is a handy i t technical and professional book.” i c —Katsu Goda, University of Bristol, UK a CCrriittiiccaall UUrrbbaann “This is an excellent handbook written by experts in the fields of water pipeline systems, sewerage systems, natural gas distribution systems, electric power systems, and l telecommunication systems. The collaborative work by the contributors has produced a U reference material that can be of practical use to engineers, practitioners, and stakeholders H involved in the construction, maintenance, disaster prevention, and mitigation of urban r IInnffrraassttrruuccttuurree lifeline systems. ... Senior undergraduate and graduate students will also benefit from this ab excellent reference material.” na —Lessandro Estelito O.

In addition, lifeline operators and enterprises have also made every effort to advance the services and reliability of their systems. Based on these contributions, this handbook summarizes the state of the art of lifeline engineering and directions for future research. Even as this handbook was being written the March 11, 2011, magnitude 9.0 Tohoku earthquake (Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami Disaster) struck the northeast region of Japan. It was the largest earthquake in Japanese history. As a result of the destructive effects, including a tsunami, ground motion, soil liquefaction, and slope failure, the toll of dead and missing was 18,641 as of October 31, 2012. Thus, it was the severest disaster over the last half century in Japan. Numerous facilities of lifeline systems such as sewerage, water, electricity, and telecommunication were severely damaged, and the urban functioning of the affected areas was paralyzed for a long time. The Tohoku earthquake reminded us of the importance of the resilience of lifeline systems against natural disasters in protecting human lives and supporting the lives of survivors of disasters as well as promptly recovering and reconstructing the affected areas. Technology development and knowledge accumulation have generally been carried out indepen- dently for each lifeline system, with technical guidelines and standards for the design and construction defined separately. However, many common issues exist among the lifeline systems, particularly related to design and construction, maintenance and management, disaster reduction, and environment pres- ervation. Furthermore, loss of function of a lifeline system strongly affects the function of other lifeline systems, and the overcrowding of recovery works among lifeline systems after natural disasters delays restoration and reconstruction of the damaged areas. One of the purposes of this handbook is to com- prehensively describe common issues among various kinds of lifeline systems that will be of practical use to engineers and concerned parties. The frequency of natural disasters such as earthquakes, storms, floods, and landslides has been increasing globally in recent years. The reasons for this are believed to be changes in the natural envi- ronment on a global scale and society’s increasing vulnerability against natural hazards. The natural environment is changing rapidly, including global warming, heat island effects in urbanized areas, loss of forests and arable land, desertification, and erosion of riverbanks and seacoasts. Vulnerability to natural disasters is also increasing as a result of changes in social structures and land use, such as excessive population concentrations in urban regions, increased settlement in disaster-prone land, and depopulation of rural areas. vii viii Preface Under these conditions, preserving the functions of lifeline systems against increasing natural disas- ters is essential to create a safer, more secure society as well as to protect human lives. This requires proper maintenance of facilities and enhancement of the disaster-resistance capabilities of lifeline systems. We hope this handbook will prove useful to engineers, operators, and other parties concerned with planning, constructing, and maintaining lifeline systems. Finally, we express our sincere gratitude to the authors and the members of the editing committee. Organizing members Masanori Hamada Takeshi Koike Takanobu Suzuki Charles Scawthorn
