Sturgeon, William C.
- Abstract
The author reflects on the effect of earthquakes on the elevator industry with reference to the "Elevator World" (EW) Annual Study. He cites that only several paragraphs referred to earthquakes in the EW Annual Study of the "Japanese Elevator Industry." He mentions a seminar for elevator companies operating in the earthquake-prone areas held under the auspices of the California Department of Industrial Relations following the 1969 earthquake. He stresses the need to ensure the durability of any structure rebuilt in Haiti.
