Abstract
The ATC-54 Report, Guidelines for Using Strong-Motion Data for Postearthquake Response and Postearthquake Structural Evaluation, under
preparation by the Applied Technology Council for the California Division of Mines and Geology, provides guidance on (1) the use of
near-real-time computer-generated ground- motion maps in emergency response, and (2) the use and interpretation of strong-motion data
to evaluate the earthquake response of buildings, bridges, and dams in the immediate postearthquake aftermath. Guidance is also provided
on the collection of data describing the characteristics and performance of structures in which, or near which, strong-motion data have
been recorded.
