Proceedings of the Invitational Workshop on Steel Seismic Issues, Los Angeles, September 1994
Addressing the difficult technical issues raised by the poor performance of steel moment resisting frame buildings during the January 17, 1994, Northridge earthquake. Includes a synthesis of the workshop findings; a review of the buildings’ performance; a proposal to address the technical and professional problems posed by the performance; summary reports by six working groups, and the technical papers prepared for each group as a basis for discussion and for formulating approaches to the resolution of the problems. 1994 155 pp.

Steel Moment Frame Connection Advisory No. 3
Funded by the California Office of Emergency Services (OES) and FEMA, this report provides evaluation and analysis of the content of the first two advisories widely distributed to practicing engineers and building officials with information on inspection and repair of welded steel moment frame buildings damaged by the Northridge earthquake. It indicates those issues for which there is common agreement and presents dissenting opinions, permitting engineers and building officials to make informed decisions on evaluation, repair, and design alternatives. 1995 310 pp. including appendices

Characterization of Ground Motions During the Northridge Earthquake of January 17, 1994
Funded by FEMA, this report characterizes the earthquake ground motions by (1) developing sets of ground motion time histories for particular sites of steel moment resisting frame buildings that were to be the subject of detailed analytical studies as part of SAC Phase 1 Task 3, and (2) developing ground motion contour maps to be used in conjunction with regional and individual building damage assessment efforts as part of SAC Phase 1 Task 2. 1995 179 pp.
