摘要

Proceedings are provided of a workshop focusing on the repair, strengthening, and rehabilitation of existing buildings to protect them and their occupants against major, damaging earthquakes. Among the topics explored are the seismic vulnerability of existing reinforced concrete buildings, the seismic upgrading of irregular reinforced concrete buildings, the repair and retrofit of existing buildings, the behavior of brick masonry prisms in compression, and the ductility requirement for reinforced concrete frame design in seismic areas. Workshop participants are listed and a workshop schedule is included.
