Abstract:The State Council in 2005 approved the establishment of the first national comprehensive matched reform experiment zone in Pudong New Area, Shanghai. In 2013, the zone was designated as China (Shanghai) Pilot Free Trade Zone, focusing on promoting institutional innovation in areas such as investment, trade, finance, and supervision during and after processes. Therefore, it is important to ensure the seismic and disaster prevention capabilities of infrastructure such as construction projects. This paper briefly describes the seismic fortification management system of construction projects in Pudong New Area and analyzes the composition of the supervised construction projects and their general situation of seismic fortification from 2009 to 2018. The measures and practices of seismic fortification management and risk prevention are summarized. They mainly include three aspects: strengthening seismic fortification review and supervision in processes, compiling regional planning on earthquake resistance and hazardous prevention, and organizing a series of training on seismic technology and carrying out scientific awareness on protecting against and mitigating earthquake disasters. Moreover, problems in current supervision and improvement methods are presented. The seismic fortification management system and risk prevention measures in Pudong New Area introduced in this paper can serve as a reference and be adopted in other regions.
