Although traditional response spectra are best for predicting building deformation for moderate shaking, our analysis indicates that a combination of peak ground velocity and peak ground displacement is actually a better predictor of building collapse.

The models include the effects of gravity so that crustal stresses are consistent with the topography of the Earth's surface and density variations in the crust.

On his return, Heaton found himself on the bench behind loanee but, following a 6—0 defeat against , he replaced Taylor for the final three matches of the season.

This is a critically important issue; we are commonly told that these long-period structures are designed for the 2,500-yr ground motion, when in fact, large earthquakes that will occur in the next several centuries are likely to cause severe damage of these important structures.
