EARTHQUAKE ENGINEERING & SCIENCE WORKSHOP<br />

Conveners: Nicolas Luco and Paul Somerville<br />

Earthquake Engineering & Science Workshop | Agenda<br />

This ½-day workshop, immediately preceding the <strong>SCEC</strong> <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Meeting</strong>, offers<br />

engineers and scientists an opportunity to focus plans for future collaborative activities<br />

related to earthquake engineering and science. The question central to the workshop is:<br />

How should <strong>SCEC</strong> collaborate with the earthquake engineering community? Interested<br />

earthquake engineers and scientists are invited to provide recommendations for future<br />

research activities through discussions of 1) current collaborative activities supported by<br />

<strong>SCEC</strong>, and 2) relevant activities and needs of the earthquake engineering community.<br />

Representatives from the earthquake engineering community (e.g. ASCE 7, ATC, BSSC,<br />

CUREE, EERI, LATBSDC, MAE, MCEER, NEES, PEER) and <strong>SCEC</strong> scientists will provide<br />

brief summaries to stimulate discussions. The workshop proceedings and<br />

recommendations will be used to plan future <strong>SCEC</strong> research directions.<br />
