The locations of the pipeline repairs are discussed relative to earthquake intensity, geomorphologic conditions and landform change in the developed areas of hilly land. Repair rate (repairs/km) is summarized according to pipe material and presence or absence of artificial landform change. The following findings were obtained: (1) More than 80% of the repairs took place in pipelines installed in higher lands such as hill and terrace areas consisting of hard soils; (2) Nearly all the pipe repairlocations in hill areas are where landform change was made through land development tor residential purposes over me past several decades; (3) The aforementioned repair rate was more than 3.6 times than that of other lowland areas where no landform change occurred. The heaviest concentrations of pipe repairs of vinyl chloride pipes and ductile iron pipes were observed within the boundary area between cutting and filling, having a thickness between -2.5 m and 2.5 m. Approximately 78% of the all pipe repairs occurred outside of areas where severe ground failures took place. A mechanism of pipe damage in the areas free of severe ground failure was discussed.展开更多
