Natural and Technological Hazards & Ecology
Earthquake engineering and engineering-seismological research:
• Seismic hazard and risk;
• Seismic zoning and microzoning;
• Definition of seismic design parameters;
• Planning, design and construction in seismically active regions;
Geophysical surveys:
• Refraction & Reflection seismic investigations;
• Down hole and cross hole seismic investigations;
• Seismic tomography;
• Microtremors - active and passive measurements of seismic surface
waves;
• Explosions – measurements, control, interpretation and design of seismic
effects from mining performed for different purposes;
Ecology:
• Protection against natural and technological catastrophes – preparation of
technical-technological reports, solutions and preliminary projects;
• Communication with governmental institutions, domestic and foreign
associations and foundations in the field of protection of environment;

Strong Motion Laboratory
• In order to provide permanent maintenance of the installed
network and processing of the obtained strong motion records,
the IZIIS Strong Motion Laboratory was established
• The instruments are located in all the regions of Macedonia
characterized by pronounced seismic activity and are installed on
various types of structures – dams, bridges, tall buildings,
industrial plants, administrative and educational buildings
providing continuous monitoring of the seismic activity
• In almost 40 years of operation, SMN recorded earthquakes with
magnitudes 3<M<7.2 resulting in a database with more than 1200
strong motion records obtained from near and distant seismic
sources on different soil conditions (bedrock and soil deposit),
and different types of structures

Strong Motion Networks
Instruments are installed in seismic active regions in
Republic of Macedonia thus providing data necessary for:
• Improvment of ingeneering practice, especially for
aseismic
design of new and reconstruction of existing
buildings;
• Improvement of Tecnical Regulation and Biuilding Codes
for design and construction in seismic active regions
• Seismic hazard assessment, physical and urban planning;
• Design and construction of essential structures (schools,
hospitals)

Real Time Strong Motion Network
 UKIM-IZIIS in colaboration with CMC (Crisis Management
Centre) started an iniative to implement the Shake Map
system in Republic of Macedonia
 CMC provides location for the instruments (GURALP) with
necessary infrastructure (electric power, internet connection)
in its premises throughout Republic of Macedonia
 UKIM-IZIIS chose 13 locations and installed
GURALP
instruments, as part of the ShakeMap System Network
 Definition and realization of two centers (one in UKIM-IZIIS,
one in CMC Headquaters) for data acquisition and
presentation

Real Time Strong Motion Network
 Responsible authorities for search and rescue operations wants
rapid information on areas affected;
 Government and Emergency Management need to know the
likely financial impacts;
 Consulting Engineers need to know the effects on structures
and how close to design limits the structure has endured;
 Earthquake Engineers want to know the parameters of the
shaking;
 Seismologists want to know the details of the fault system that
caused the event;
 Media want to know how the Public will be affected;
 Business Leaders need to know the likely affect on their
multiple locations and campuses and the safety of their
structures
