Assessing Disaster Damage


Listen Later

Guest: Dr. Tim Marshall


Introduction: When natural disasters strike, those affected work to rebuild their lives and livelihoods; but before we rebuild, we must assess the damage that has occurred. By doing this, we can work to improve the structures where we live and work and hopefully prevent the same damage from happening again. Dr. Tim Marshall is joining us today and is one of the nation’s preeminent forensic engineers. He was also involved in the development team that produced the Enhanced Fujita Scale for tornado damage assessment as well as a major contributor to the committee to update the Saffir-Simpson scale.
