Purpose

The aim of this paper is to link earthquake probabilistic and deterministic risk assessment with the decision‐making process in order to implement policies, plans, and procedures to prevent or reduce human and monetary losses.

Design/methodology/approach

This study suggests an integrated framework for earthquake consequences management. The framework consists of an earthquake consequences model, value analysis, and socio‐economic analysis, as well as dynamic integration for implementing strategies, policies, and plans.

Findings

The developed integrated framework for earthquake consequences management could be used for a study area, especially in developing countries in which human and capital resources are limited.

Research limitations/implications

There is a need to have different case studies to demonstrate how the integrated framework for earthquake consequence management could reduce human and monetary losses due to earthquakes for a study area.

Originality/value

It is important to consider earthquake risks as part of strategic planning for societies that are vulnerable to future earthquakes.
