Abstract

The U.S.-U.S.S.R. Agreement on Housing and Other Construction was signed in Moscow, June 28, 1974, and includes a working group on “Construction in Seismic Areas”. As part of this protocol, exchange visits have occurred of working groups from the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. This report describes the most recent exchange which took place when the U.S. delegation visited the Soviet Union during October 12-22, 1986. The delegation visited construction sites and research institutes in Moscow, Tbilisi (Georgia), and Yerevan (Armenia). The technical focus of the visit was on building structure analysis and design, ground motion and geotechnical engineering issues, and experimental studies in design, repair, and retrofit.
