Abstract
This report--the second of two volumes--represents an ongoing effort by the U.S. Geological Survey to transfer accurate Earth science information about earthquake hazards along Utah's Wasatch Front to researchers, public officials, design professionals, land-use planners, and emergency managers in an effort to mitigate the effects of these hazards. This volume contains eight chapters on ground-shaking hazards and aspects of loss estimation.
