Potential casualties substantially decreased
The cost of replacement would have been more than the cost of mitigation by almost twice as much. The results of the pre and post analyses bears out the positive benefits of proactive mitigation

Magnitude 7 on the Historic 1886 Earthquake
Functionality on 4 Schools: 34.3%
Magnitude 5.5 on the Historic 1886 Earthquake
Functionality on 4 Schools: 61%
Total Cost of Retrofit and Rebuild: $102.5 Million
Total Estimated Replacement Cost: $200 Million
Project Description
Team Awesome looked at 4 schools in the Charleston County School District that were seismically vulnerable or fragile. CCSD implemented mitigation measures and the Team ran analyses to determine the impact of mitigation on the Hazus model. An analysis was run on the schools as they were before the mitigation measures were implemented and after. Team Awesome also compared the cost of the implementation of mitigation measures versus the estimated cost of replacement of the original buildings
