The goal of this project is to provide ODOT with the best rational estimate of ground acceleration values for designing new and retrofitting existing bridges. The objectives are to:

  • evaluate the hazard by contrasting the acceleration values from individual CSZ events to PSHA values
  • provide experimental evidence of damage difference under longer duration shaking expected from CSZ event
