Study on the Safety Evaluation Method of Life-Saving Passage in Building Ruins under the Action of Aftershock by Xu Defeng, Dai Junwu, Chen Limei, Yang Yongqiang, Richard Agyare

“…The possibility of the secondary collapse of the life-saving passage increases exponentially with the increase of rescue time within “72-hour gold rescue,” and the growth is slow after 72 hours when the magnitude of the main earthquake reaches above 7.4; the safety factor K should be increased appropriately if wood shoring is used to construct a life-saving passage when the main earthquake’s magnitude is greater than or equal to 7.5. The safety evaluation method of life-saving passage can provide effective reference for earthquake rescue.…”
