Author: M. Çelebi and C.B. Crouse | Size: 0.33 MB | Format: PDF | Quality: Unspecified | Publisher: COSMOS (Consortium of Organizations for Strong-Motion Observation Systems) Workshop on Structural Instrumentation Emeryville, Ca. November 14-15, 2001 | Year: 2001 | pages: 18

The objectives of this paper are to:
• introduce the recommendations of a workshop held in 1992 that aimed to define the
background information in establishing a special purpose array in a seismically
active region of the United States to study specifically the effect of SSI and define
the parameters and details of a SSI experiment,
• summarize two recent workshops that in general discussed the SSI subject,
• describe the current state of implementation in the US and Japan.
The objectives of the 1992 workshop were: (a) to bring together a panel of experts to reach a
consensus on the benefits and feasibility of instrumenting a building in a seismically active region of
the United States to study specifically the effect of SSI, and (b) to discuss and determine the details
of such a SSI experiment.
