HAZUS®MH MR3 FLood Model User Manual
The flood loss estimation methodology consists of two modules that carry out basic analytical processes: flood hazard analysis and flood loss estimation analysis. The flood hazard analysis module uses characteristics, such as frequency, discharge, and ground elevation to estimate flood depth, flood elevation, and flow velocity. The flood loss estimation module calculates physical damage and economic loss from the results of the hazard analysis. New in HAZUS-MH MR3 Flood Model: Data: Commercial data updated to Dun & Bradstreet 2006; Building valuations updated to R.S.
