- Abstract
- The purpose of this meeting was to provide a vehicle for the exchange of information related to current and projected university research in earthquake engineering and to evaluate progress in specific areas of research and establish goals and priorities for future work. Ninety-five individuals gave reports. The written summaries of these reports as well as some summaries not presented orally are contained in this report. The summaries are organized under the following topics: ground motion; soils and soil structure interaction; structural elements; structural response, experimental; structural response, analytical; seismic risk, seismic design and codes.
