SYNER G will have impact on the following levels:
- Technology: A unique European approach will be created making
us independent from the U.S. approach
- Society: The protection and safety of the population will be
considerably improved
- Economy: The results will enable an improvement of the European
infrastructure and lifelines avoiding dramatic losses from earthquakes
to come
- Standards: A standard will be created allowing a European approach
to the subject allowing application all over the continent and
enabling the construction industry to improve the built infrastructure
- ERA: The European Union will be enabled to implement greater
economic integration with its neighbors who are also considerably
in need of these new methodologies
- International Collaboration: The results of the project will
make collaboration with Europe more attractive particular from
the view of the U.S: and Japan. Europe will be enabled to take
the lead on this subject
- Technology Transfer: Europe will be seen as enabling the rising
problems of mega cities in earthquake prone areas
These elements of impact are described in more detail in the subsequent
chapters.
