Structural and earthquake engineering for reinsurance and catastrophe
Structural engineering explains how buildings and infrastructure respond to wind, ground shaking, flood and fire. In catastrophe reinsurance it supplies the vulnerability functions that convert hazard intensity into damage and loss.

02Serlêdan
What structural and earthquake engineering does here.
Structural and earthquake engineering designs buildings, bridges and other structures to carry loads safely, including those from earthquakes, wind and floods. It determines how much damage the built environment suffers when hazards occur. In insurance and catastrophe, climate and hazards and disaster and crisis, structural engineering supplies vulnerability functions for loss models and guides retrofit priorities. It links hazard intensity to disruption of housing, services and supply chains. The canonical description is on the STEM Commons.
Building code effectiveness
Loss differences between buildings of different code eras are studied to show how much stronger standards reduce damage.
Post-event damage surveys
Field surveys after events record damage patterns by building type, which are then used to recalibrate vulnerability functions.
03Spatial finance
Assets on the grid, and the portfolio they make.
Where a portfolio’s assets sit, and how much of its value is most exposed. Hypothetical assets, not an assessment.

06Erêkirin
How results are checked.
Designs are checked against codes, laboratory and shake-table tests, and observed performance after events. Peer review is used for unusual structures.
| Kontrol bikin | How it is done |
|---|---|
| Claims back-testing | Functions reproduce observed damage ratios |
| Secondary modifiers | The effect of roof, opening and foundation features is documented |
| Regional applicability | Functions are checked for the building stock where applied |
Existing building stock is often poorly documented. Interaction of multiple hazards and degradation over time is incompletely represented.
07Loss model
Loss exceedance, average annual loss and probable maximum loss.
The loss a portfolio in the footprint can expect per year and at the 1 in 100 and 1 in 250 levels that insurers and lenders price, from the same three blocks every catastrophe model uses. Teaching model with stated illustrative values, not a prediction. The map on this page shows The Gulf of Mexico coast; the model itself is not tied to a place.
