| Abstract | ||
Urban villages have a haphazard unplanned development that makes them prone to risks of an earthquake. This research focuses on the case study of the risks of an earthquake to an urban village in the city of Delhi, India. It was found by visual observation of buildings and infrastructure along with an unstructured interview with some households to assess the physical vulnerability to an earthquake. |
