The Using of Container For Earthquake Mitigation Shelter In West Jawa

Abstract

Abstract Bandung is a city in West Java. Bandung has unique topography because it is surrounded by volcanoes. This condition causes Bandung to become an earthquake prone area. It is necessary to plan the disaster mitigation if an earthquake occurs. One thing that needs to be planned is a refugee shelter. The shelter must be strong enough to resist the aftershocks and quick to install.and disassemble. Container can be one of the best option for the shelter. This research uses container material as the existing structure that will be tested for resistance to seismic loads (Bandung). Seismic load testing is carried out using the ETABS software following the design requirements according to SNI 1726:2019. There are six variations of the containers arrangement tested for stiffness and strength. All variations of the modified container arrangement meet the requirements for stiffness and strength against earthquake forces according to SNI 1726:2019 regulations.
