Proposal for a Workshop to Design a Soil-Structure Interaction Experiment

人们认识到， 地震地面震动改变了 一个结构系统。 但是没有强震数据 从仪器化建筑物，以确认的有效性 土-结构相互作用分析方法和程序;甚至 尽管这种相互作用的影响现在包括在 各种抗震规范（如ATC-3、NEHRP-1985）。 举办的讲习班 从1978年至今， 对建筑物进行土壤结构检测的建议 互动研究 虽然有100多个建筑物， 美国用仪器测量强震的影响 地面震动，没有仪器结构， 允许详细校准和/或确认 土-结构相互作用分析方法 的目标 这个研讨会是为了计划和设计这样一个实验， 这是由美国地质调查局进行的。 这一行动是为了支持这一倡议，由国家 科学基金会。 研讨会的目的是：（a） 召集一个专家小组，就 实施土壤结构的好处和可行性 互动实验通过仪器的建筑物在一个 美国地震活跃区（B）规划 这样的实验细节。

It is recognized that soil-structure interaction during strong earthquake ground shaking alters the response characteristics of a structural system. However there are no strong-motion data from instrumented buildings to confirm the validity of the soil-structure interaction analysis methods and procedures; even though the effects of this interaction are now included in various seismic codes (e.g. ATC-3, NEHRP-1985). Workshops held between 1978 and the present have repeatedly included the recommendation to instrument a building for soil-structure interaction studies. Although there are over 100 structures in the U.S. instrumented to measure the effects of strong earthquake ground shaking, there are no instrumented structures that would allow detailed calibration and/or confirmation of the validity of soil-structure interaction analysis methods. The objective of this workshop is to plan for and to design such an experiment, which is being undertaken by the U.S. Geological Survey. This action is for support of this initiative by the National Science Foundation. The purposes of this workshop are: (a) to bring together a panel of experts to reach a consensus on the benefits and feasibility of implementing a soil-structure interaction experiment by instrumenting a building in a seismically-active region of the U.S., and (b) to plan the details for such an experiment.
