Over the past few years, disasters, both at the national and global levels, have increased the degree of uncertainty faced by policy makers, challenged emergency arrangements and raised issues regarding the appropriateness of the measures taken. Building Disaster resilience and preparing for the same has consequently gained prominence is being increasingly seen as a central concern for construction professionals.
