Abstract

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) is the lead federal agency of the National Earthquake Hazards Research Program (NEHRP) to conduct research related to earth sciences. Therefore, whether it is research on structures or other civil engineering disciplines, the subject matter of such research at USGS must meet NEHRP objectives. The most recent charges for USGS are outlined in the Draft of the NEHRP Strategic Plan (August 2000) which details several research issues on the effects of ground motions on built environment.
