ST-RISK^TM can be used for compliance with ASTM Standard E2026-99, "Standard Guide for the Estimation of Building Damageability in Earthquakes." The estimation of loss should be made by personnel with qualifications and experience in this field, as described in Section 3.4 of the Standard. Qualified personnel can use ST-RISK^TM for ASTM E2026-99 compliance in the following areas:

Ground motion assessment, Level G1
Site stability assessment, Level SS1
Damageability assessment, Level D1
Business interruption assessment, Level B1

Any damageability assessment beyond the basic screening level assessment requires a site visit by qualified personnel, and ST-RISK^TM can be an important tool that takes into account building-specific characteristics, as required by ASTM E2026-99.
