Tyndall AFB was nearly destroyed after a category five hurricane named Michaeltore through the Florida panhandle in 2018. A Program Management Office was stood upto coordinate, plan, and carry out the rebuild efforts of Tyndall AFB. The office’s primaryresponsibility is “building a base capable of supporting a 21st-century mission while alsofocusing on structural resiliency and efficiency” (Laidlaw 2019). Despite the requirementto build a resilient infrastructure portfolio, the United States Air Force has yet to fullyquantify and qualify measures of resilience, including robustness and vulnerability, in thecontext of their current built infrastructure portfolio. This research defines resilience,robustness, and vulnerability in the context of built infrastructure and proposes an easilyaccessible taxonomy of metrics to quantify each of these terms. A systematic review ofliterature explored the public sector’s use of resilience, robustness, and vulnerabilitymetrics. Key takeaways include identifying required data inputs for executing the metrics,a generalization of the outputs of each metric, and potential ways for the USAF to leverageeach metric with existing SMS data. The resultant metrics identified are then categorizedbased on the level of analysis used to execute them (campus level, system level, componentlevel metrics). Future endeavors include down-selecting metrics to those most readilyimplementable by USAF engineers. |
