A Symposium on Performance-Based Earthquake Engineering

性能工程学专题讨论会将于1997年1月在伯克利举行。这次研讨会将用来纪念Vitelmo Bertero教授在他辉煌的职业生涯中对地震工程领域的贡献。L将在1月31日和2月31日进行前沿研究的技术报告。为期两天的技术课程的目标受众将集中在基于性能的地震工程和设计上。研讨会分为四个半天的会议。四个课程的题目是：钢筋混凝土结构、钢结构、设计方法和从地震中吸取教训。这次研讨会将汇聚地震工程领域的许多专家。它为来自美国各地的年轻教师提供了一个绝佳的机会，让他们获得基于性能的地震工程的最新知识信息，并会见专家院士、研究人员和设计专业人员。这次会议的一个独特之处是，来自美国各地的20名年轻教职员工和5名演讲者参加了研讨会。这将为年轻的研究人员提供一个宝贵的机会，在技术讨论中与资深和有成就的研究人员互动。

A symposium on performance-based engineering will be held in January 1997 in Berkeley. This symposium will be used to honor the contributions of Professor Vitelmo Bertero to the field of earthquake engineering over his illustrious career. Technical presentations on frontier research will be made on January 31 and February l. The target audience for the two-day technical program will focus on performance-based earthquake engineering and a design. The symposium is split into four one-half day sessions. The four session titles are: Reinforced Concrete Structures, Steel Structures, Design Methodologies, and Learning from Earthquakes. The Symposium will bring together many experts in the field of earthquake engineering. It offers an outstanding opportunity for young faculty from around the United States to gain state-of-the-knowledge information on performance-based earthquake engineering, and to meet expert academicians, researchers and design professionals. A unique feature of this meeting is to bring 20 young faculty and 5 speakers from around the United States to the Symposium. This will afford young researchers a valuable opportunity to interact with senior and accomplished researchers in technical discussions.
