Dear All,
1.) The delay in distribution of the material by GoD was because the officer incharge, Mr. Sanjay Jha ( some of you have met him during the training programme in Delhi, June 2004) was away in the US attending a training. He is back in office now, and has promised to get the material copied and distributed asap! He can be contacted at 23919170. Alternatively, please ask for Akhilesh Surjan in Mr. Jha's office, or Aslam Perwaiz in UNDP - 24332388
2.) Spoke to Mr. Narayan Swami ( Secretary Home - GoD), and he has promised to come up with a list of buildings for the pilot assessment project in the next week or two. He has also asked the new Engineer-in-Chief of PWD Delhi to get involved in this initiative. Once a list of buildings is ready, DDMA would call for another meeting of the people who have come forward to be part of the Consortium, to decide allocation of buildings, and quickly go ahead with the assessment, as decided earlier. Each building identified would be accompanied by a small team of government engineers from the department/agency responsible for the maintenance of the building, that would work along with the private structural engineering firm for assessment and possible retrofitting of the building.
Best Regards, Aparna

I hope you have now received some of the resource materials we sent to Delhi Govt for onward sharing. I will now like to send some more materials. However, before I do so, I want to know if the materials 我们之前发送被发现有用的。
I will not like to burden the colleagues with too many documents unless they find them useful.
With best regards,
Sudhir

Dear Colleagues,
Welcome aboard the Discussion Forum/email-list meant for the members of the consortium for the SEFI-GoD Initiative on Seismic Evaluation & Retrofitting. Although a bit delayed due to technical snags, it is a good start as it coincides with the eConference that SEFI is organizing between Aug 9-14, 2004 on " the draft code for Seismic Evaluation & Retrofitting of Existing Buildings".
The SEFI website now contains a whole webpage on this Initiative, tracing the need, history & chain of events of this Initiative, and also a seperate page for the online viewing of the messages posted to this forum.
The resource material has arrived from IIT-Kanpur, and will be sent tomorrow to Mr. Sanjay Jha's office for copying & distribution to all the members. It is an informative & exhaustive set of documentation on this topic. Everybody is requested to go thru the documentation thoroughly, alongwith the documentation they already have from the Workshop.
We hope that shortly, UNDP & GoD would identify & finalize the lifeline buildings in Delhi for the Pilot projects. In this regard, I would request representatives of UNDP & GoD, to post to this forum, the progress made in this matter.
I would also request all the members of this consortium to air their views & suggestions on how to best procceed with this initiative, as was discussed on the meeting of June 26,2004. For posting to this forum you should send an email tosefi-god@www.buonovino.com. Right now all the members have been subscribed as to receive each individual email that is posted to this forum. If anybody wants their settings to be changed to "Daily Digest", or change their email ID for subscription to this forum, or wants to unsubscribe, please send an email toroark.sol@spectranet.comwith your request.
I hope everybody will enthusiastically participate in this forum & more importantly to this very crucial Initiative.
With best regards
