This award supports a workshop in January 2010 to formulate a vision for earthquake engineering in the United States for 2020. Workshop participants representing the diversity of the earthquake engineering community will have the opportunity to gather, distill, and formulate principal and potentially transformative new directions in earthquake engineering research, practice, education and outreach. The next ten years are crucial for development of this engineering discipline. The lack of focus induced by damage in a major earthquake is also a unique opportunity to set the stage for development of areas of earthquake engineering that would not have emerged when driven by an earthquake emergency, and to maximize the use of the state of the art NEES research facilities. Open Space Technology will be used to conduct the two-day workshop. This is a radically new way to conduct a workshop. It is based on a single strong theme and relies on self-organization of the meeting participants to generate, develop, refine, and formulate the meeting outcomes. The workshop is facilitated by a professional facilitator and guided by the workshop organizers to produce the desired outcomes.Objectives and Broader Impacts: The objectives of the workshop are to: 1) describe a desired state of earthquake engineering in 2020; 2) identify major trends in earthquake engineering research, education and outreach to transform the current state into the desired state; 3) identify the enabling theories and technologies, as well as education and outreach methods; and 4) identify a set of metrics to measure the progress along the identified path. The plan for transformation of earthquake engineering will broadly impact the coming generation of students through the identification of new research and practice interests and new approaches for conducting multidisciplinary work. The workshop report will be broadly disseminated through the National Earthquake Hazards Reduction Program (NEHRP) web site at http://www.nehrp.gov. Intellectual Merit: The key to success of this workshop is the interaction of experts from different disciplines that represent the entire earthquake engineering ecosystem. This workshop will yield a new vision for earthquake engineering: one of a complex system of interacting disciplines where new knowledge is generated through intellectual efforts at the intersections of the constituent branches of science and engineering.

该奖项支持2010年1月的一次研讨会，以制定美国2020年地震工程的愿景。代表地震工程界多样性的研讨会参与者将有机会收集、提炼和制定地震工程研究、实践、教育和推广方面的主要和潜在的变革性新方向。未来十年是工程学科发展的关键时期。大地震造成的破坏缺乏重点也是一个独特的机会，可以为地震紧急情况下不会出现的地震工程领域的发展奠定基础，并最大限度地利用最先进的NEES研究设施。开放空间技术将用于举办为期两天的研讨会。这是一种全新的举办研讨会的方式。它基于单一的强主题，依靠会议参与者的自我组织来产生、发展、改进和制定会议成果。研讨会的目标和更广泛的影响：研讨会的目标是：1)描述2020年地震工程的理想状态；2)确定地震工程研究、教育和推广方面的主要趋势，以将当前状态转变为理想状态；3)确定有利的理论和技术，以及教育和推广方法；以及4)确定一套衡量沿着确定的道路取得进展的指标。地震工程转型计划将通过确定新的研究和实践兴趣以及开展多学科工作的新方法，广泛影响下一代学生。研讨会报告将通过国家减少地震灾害计划网站http://www.nehrp.gov.广泛传播学术价值：这次研讨会成功的关键是来自代表整个地震工程生态系统的不同学科的专家之间的互动。这次讲习班将为地震工程提出一个新的愿景：一个复杂的相互作用的学科系统，在这个系统中，通过在科学和工程的组成分支的交叉点进行智力努力来产生新的知识。
