Summary An earthquake will claim lives and destroy properties in Japanese densely built-up districts. So it is necessary for us to estimate disaster-preventive performance of city and district for improvement. In this study, we tried to get new knowledge to easily estimate disaster preventive performance, and we attempted to apply Fire Resistive Ratio to district scale.
