It is an important issue for engineers and technicians that how to conduct safe identification and earthquake resistant strengthening of the primary and secondary school buildings after Wenchuan earthquake. The paper comprehensively reviewed aspects of quality detection, safety identification and strengthening design of the primary and secondary school buildings in Xi’an district. To address existed security risks, construction progress, construction complexity and period were comprehensively considered to choose corresponding seismic strengthening method based on seismic qualification and site survey. Project proposal was given according to problems in the design, which provides reference to design and construction of following similar projects.

An important issue our engineers and technicians met is that how to do safe identification and earthquake resistant strengthening of the primary and secondary school buildings after WenChuan earthquake. The paper reviewed entirely the quality detection, identification and strengthening design of the primary and secondary school buildings in Xi'an. In this paper, the influences of the construction progress, complexity and construction period are all taken into account in order to choose the corresponding seismic strengthening method which are based on the seismic qualification and on-the-spot survey. Problems existed in project design are presented in this paper, which can be taken for example on similar engineering.

The purpose of this paper is to study the evaluation theories on engineering design quality of the primary and secondary school teaching building. In this research the specific seismic performances of primary and secondary school buildings was analyzed. Then, the design quality evaluation index system of primary and secondary School buildings and multi-layered evaluation system were established according to the system engineering theory of builing engineering design. A fuzzy comprehensive evaluation precedure was finally shown. The result indicated the hidden problems and management defects can be accurately found through this evaluation system with using the quality and quantity analysis way. It was helpful to greatly increase the ability to forecast, prevent and control engineering accidents, by which the prevention-after-accident quality management model of building engineering design can change into self-control type.

For improvement of operability and ensuring of reliability, the local technical guidelines for Safety Project for Primary and Secondary School Buildings in Yunnan Province was developed as complementary files for national standard of seismic appraisal of buildings, which was just replaced by a new version. The local guidelines were used in the investigation and appraisal for buildings safety project of primary and secondary school 2009, and led to good results. Executive summary of the investigation and appraisal was presented, existed weakness and improvement requirement were also proposed.

In the Ms8.0 Wenchuan earthquake on 12th May 2008, a large number of primary and secondary school buildings were seriously damaged. Therefore, considerable attentions have been paid to earthquake resistance capacity of school facilities and some relevant national codes in China have been updated after earthquake. Recently, many approaches to seismic retrofit of school buildings have been proposed and applied. The focus of this paper is on application of energy dissipation technology to C-category frame structure of school buildings retrofitting, with the objective of increasing one grade of precautionary intensity, while the C-category buildings are designed in conformity with China’s code for seismic design of buildings (GB 50011-2001). Since the seismic precautionary classification of school buildings has been changed from standard precautionary category to major precautionary category, the structural ductility requirements are stricter with the increase of seismic precautionary intensity. Thus, this paper presents the retrofitting difficulties in C-category frame structure of school buildings for the restriction of ductility requirements, and also explores how to apply energy dissipation technology to seismic retrofit of such buildings for achieving expected retrofitting objective and reducing heavy strengthening tasks. In the end, a retrofitting example of C-category frame structure of school building is cited to demonstrate the feasibility of energy-dissipating retrofit method. The analysis results indicate that energy dissipation technology can be well applied to C-category frame structure of school buildings retrofitting for increasing one grade of precautionary intensity.
