The Prince William Sound, Alaska, Earthquake of 1964 and Aftershocks. Volume II. Research Studies: Seismology and Marine Geology. Part A. Engineering Seismology
The publication is Volume II, part A, of a three volume series on the Prince William Sound, Alaska, Earthquake of 1964. This part, Engineering Seismology Studies, was prepared essentially for the use of design and structural engineers or others studying the effects of the earthquake and its accompanying landslides upon various types of building construction found in the Alaskan area-including wood frame, steel frame, masonry, and prestressed and reinforced concrete. The practical aspects of engineering seismology discussed involve detailed appraisals of earthquake damage suffered by various types of structures subjected to seismic waves of differing frequencies, the objective analysis of the relative influence of the earthquake and aftershocks upon similar types of building design and construction situated upon different geologic substrata, and the evaluation of free period oscillatory or vibratory motions in building structures. A consideration of the possible use of microseisms as an indicator of resonance phenomena affecting earthquake structural damage is also included.
