During the Chilean earthquake of March 3, 1985, failures and excessive movements of waterfront quay walls occurred in Valparaiso and San Antonio, Chile. Accelerographs located in both cities gave useful records of measured ground motions, and information is available on the construction and soil conditions at the site of the failures. The major objective of this research program is to use this information to improve the understanding of failures; in particular, to test the applicability and accuracy of methods for analyzing and designing quay walls to resist seismic loading conditions.

在1985年3月3日的智利地震中，智利瓦尔帕莱索和圣安东尼奥发生了滨水码头墙的坍塌和过度移动。位于这两个城市的加速器提供了测量的地面运动的有用记录，并且可以获得关于故障现场的建筑和土壤条件的信息。这项研究计划的主要目的是利用这些信息来提高对破坏的理解；特别是测试分析和设计码头墙以抵御地震荷载条件的方法的适用性和准确性。
