Abstract (english)

The article presents the results of the research work “Certification of real estate objects of the city
of Almaty for the purpose of their survey for earthquake resistance” carried out in 2017-2018 in
the Republic of Kazakhstan. Almaty is located in the zone of high seismic risk. The main purpose
of the work is to obtain up-to-date data on the seismic vulnerability of buildings and structures
of existing buildings, primarily residential and social facilities, which is an urgent task not only
for Almaty, but also for all settlements located in earthquake-prone regions of the Republic of
Kazakhstan. According to the results of the work, up-to-date data were obtained and electronic
passports were compiled for 10525 social and residential facilities. The results of the certification
made it possible to identify earthquake-prone buildings, assign priority objects for their seismic
reinforcement or demolition, determine the amount of costs for strengthening earthquake-prone
buildings and demolishing dilapidated housing.
