National Institute ofStandards and Technology was established in 1988 by Congress to "assist industry in
thedevelopmentoftechnology . . .neededtoimproveproductquality,tomodernizemanufacturingprocesses,
to ensure product reliability . . . and to facilitate rapid commercialization ... ofproducts based on new scientific
discoveries."
NIST, originally founded as the National Bureau of Standards in 1901, works to strengthen U.S. industry's
competitiveness; advance science and engineering; and improve public health, safety, and the environment. One
of the agency's basic functions is to develop, maintain, and retain custody of the national standards of
measurement, and provide the means and methods for comparing standards used in science, engineering,
manufacturing, commerce, industry, and education with the standards adopted or recognized by the Federal
Government.
As an agency of the U.S. Commerce Department's Technology Administration, NIST conducts basic and
applied research in the physical sciences and engineering, and develops measurement techniques, test
methods, standards, and related services. The Institute does generic and precompetitive work on new and
advanced technologies. NIST's research facilities are located at Gaithersburg, MD 20899, and at Boulder, CO 80303.
Major technical operating units and their principal activities are listed below. For more information contact the

PREFACE
This publication contains the proceedings ofthe 32" Joint Meeting ofthe U.S.-Japan
Panel on Wind and Seismic Effects. The meeting was held at the National Institute of
Standards and Technology (NIST), Gaithersburg, Maryland (USA), during May 16-19,
2000. The proceedings include the program, list ofmembers, task committee reports, and
technical papers submitted to the Joint Panel Meeting, and a summary ofthe technical
site visits.
BACKGROUND
Responding to the need for improving engineering and scientific practices through
exchange oftechnical data and information, research personnel, and research equipment,
the United States and Japan in 1961 created the U.S.-Japan Cooperative Science
Program. Three collateral programs comprise the Cooperative Science Program. One of
the three, the U.S.-Japan Cooperative Program in Natural Resources (UJNR), was created
in January 1964. The objective ofUJNR is to exchange information on research results
and exchange scientists and engineers in the area ofnatural resources for the benefit of
both countries. UJNR is composed of 18 Panels, each ofwhich is responsible for specific
technical subjects.
The Panel on Wind and Seismic Effects was established in 1969. Seventeen U.S. and
seven Japanese agencies participate with representatives ofprivate sector organizations to
develop and exchange technologies aimed at reducing damage from high winds,
earthquakes, storm surge, and tsunamis. This work is produced through collaboration
between U.S. and Japanese member researchers working in eleven task committees.
Each task committee focuses on specific technical issues, e.g., earthquake strong motion
data. The Panel provides the vehicle to exchange technical data and information on
design and construction ofcivil engineering lifelines, buildings, and waterfront
structures, and to exchange high wind and seismic measurement records. Annual
meetings alternate between Japan and the U.S. (odd numbered years in Japan; even
numbered years in the U.S.). These one-week technical meetings provide a forum to
discuss ongoing research and research results; they are followed by a series oftechnical
site visits.
The National Institute ofStandards and Technology (NIST) provides the U.S.-side
chairman and secretary-general. The Public Works Research Institute (PWRI) provides
the Japan-side chairman and secretary-general.
Annual meetings provide the mechanism for interaction between U.S. and Japanese
researchers in wind and seismic engineering, creating opportunities to gain valuable
information and to engage in cooperative research. Through these opportunities, the
Panel member organizations have realized important advances in building and structures
technology. The Panel's activities have resulted in improved building and structures
codes and standards in both countries; for example, the Panel:
iii
• created and exchanged digitized earthquake records used as the basis ofdesign and
research for Japan and the United States;
• transferred earthquake engineering information and strong-motion measurement
techniques for use by seismically active countries, e.g., Australia, Canada, Italy,
Mexico, Peru, Taiwan, Turkey, and North Africa;
• produced data that advanced the design and construction ofbridge structures;
• produced large-scale testing data that advanced the seismic design standards for
buildings;
• improved in-situ measurement methods for soil liquefaction and stability under
seismic loads;
• created a database on storm surge and tsunamis and verified mathematical models of
tsunami and storm surge warning systems;
• established a library resource ofcurrent research on wind and earthquake engineering
and on storm surge and tsunamis;
• published proceedings ofPanel Meeting and Task Committee Workshops;
• provided earthquake science and technology expertise to the U.S.-Japan Natural
Disaster Reduction Initiative ofthe U.S.-Japan Framework for New Economic
Partnership (Common Agenda);
• created a web site for promoting the Panel's activities widely.
The Panel's efforts are exemplary ofeffectivejoint research and technology delivery
between researchers from the U.S. and Japan. Since its creation, more than 1900 papers
have been presented in 32 Joint Meetings, more than 60 Task Committee Workshops
were held, and over 200 guest researchers have participated in exchange programs. The
Panel provides important information about the U.S. and Japan's civil engineering
thrusts, which influence both countries' research and provide the basis for improvements
in building and structures codes and standards.
HIGHLIGHTS OF THE 32"''JOINT PANEL MEETING
• Technical presentations:
Forty-four papers were presented during ten sessions.
Important knowledge was exchanged for research and practice, e.g., information
systems for risk assessment and disaster response using Geographical Information
Systems; performance-based design ofbuildings, bridges, and port facilities; wind
and earthquake engineering for buildings, bridges and other structures; research
findings and lessons learned from recent natural disasters; and research findings
on public health issues following natural disasters.
• Task Committee activities:
The T/C structure is an extremely effective vehicle to explore in depth the
technologies and methods being used by both countries.
Five Task Committee Workshops and Meetings were held in the past year.
Five Task Committee Workshops/Committee Meetings are planned for the
coming year.
iv
• Strategic Plan Development:
Recognizing its strengths and accomplishments and a desire to position itselffunctionally
and organizationally to address future challenges, the Panel agreed to appoint a Joint Ad-
Hoc Planning Committee to develop a strategic plan for the Panel. The Joint Ad-Hoc
Planning Committee will:
Evaluate the current organization, task committee structure, annual technical
meeting and site visit program, cooperative research projects, and related
operating procedures.
Assess current and emerging technical needs and interests ofgovernment agencies
in the two countries.
Review options for streamlining and increasing the efficiency ofPanel operations
and for moving toward more effective operating procedures.
Develop ajoint strategic plan for the Panel and present it to the Panel for adoption
in early 2001.
