Testing the extensibility of an earthquake vulnerability microzonation methodology by application at Bargara, Queensland

The author has developed an extensible methodology for conducting microzonation surveys for vulnerability to earthquake shaking. This methodology was used to survey the City of Bundaberg, Queensland. The methodology has now been used to conduct a similar survey of the adjoining town of Bargara. The geology of the two survey areas is quite different. This has allowed the methodology's extensibility to be tested. The results of that test are provided in this paper.
