RESEARCH ABSTRACT
Flood as one of the natural disasters which is related to weather is a common disaster occurring in a lot of places in the world. Environment deterioration and human life damage are the recorded results of floods. Between 2006 till 2008 due to heavy monsoons rainfall a number of floods have generated along Malaysia's in different parts of the country. The critical zones in terms of flood damage are located in the east coast of peninsular Malaysia in the states of Kelantan, Terengganu and Pahang. The flood cost about millions of ringgit of property and many lives. With annual heavy monsoon rains averaging more than 3000mm and such a large flood-prone area, flood risk is indeed high, most notably in riverine areas and coastal flat lands. With such a large population living in flood-prone areas, flood exposure is high as well. Because of such high flood risks and exposure, the Malaysian Government is forced to spend a huge amount of its annual budget to mitigate against floods.
RESEARCH OBJECTIVES
  1. To identify physical damage of building component pattern and systematic estimated loss calculation technique.
  2. To develop an integrated building damage assessment model for systematic structural damage identification and real time total loss calculation.
  3. To evaluate infrastructure mobile devices enable the onsite and on demand information provisioning computational support required by estimators in the aftermath of the disaster.

RESEARCH IMPACT
  1. The integrated building damage assessment prototype provides accurate site disaster monitoring.
  2. The integrated system provides the information of work progress to head office practically instantaneously.
  3. The system provides huge information from the site in a simple and user-friendly format that helps government agencies to digest and process information in a quick time.
  4. Using integrated system can raise the rate of productivity of work and reduce the improper usage of government fund
