  1. Which land should we permit rebuilding on?
  2. How should we treat damaged houses founded on poor soil?
  3. How should we design new house foundations when they are founded on poor soil?
  4. What should we do with damaged URM structures?
  5. What should we do with undamaged URM structures?
  6. What should we do with undamaged bridges?
  7. What should we do with historic structures (both damaged and undamaged)?
  8. What should we do with pallet racks?
  9. What should we do with underground services?
  10. What code changes are required?
