Abstract

In the province of Groningen nowadays approximately 50 earthquakes occur a year. Since earthquakes in the province are relative new not much is written about the topic yet. Therefore this study attempts to provide a better insight of the uncertainties created by earthquakes and their influence in planning. Next to that the study will explain how the uncertainties are examined and translated into plans for new constructions in Groningen. As case study het Groninger Forum is used. Results of this research show that it’s important to take uncertainties of earthquakes in an early stage of the planning process in account. Furthermore getting know how about these uncertainties will ensure planners can come up with suitable solutions to deal with the uncertainties at hand. What’s however most important when dealing with uncertainties of earthquakes is doing research.
