Abstract:

Earthquake engineering activities at Caltech are conducted within the organizational structure of the Earthquake Engineering Research Laboratory (EERL). The laboratory was formed in the 1960's and has a long and distinguished history of being at the forefront of earthquake engineering research. Funding for EERL research activities comes from a variety of sources including federal and state government agencies and private companies.

          The faculties of the Earthquake Engineering Research Laboratory and the Seismological Laboratory of Caltech jointly conduct a program called the Earthquake Research Affiliates (ERA). This program provides regular research conferences and earthquake related field trips for member organizations. In addition to the joint efforts under the ERA program, the faculties of the two laboratories collaborate on numerous research projects.
