Construction and Application of Earthquake Engineering Knowledge Base(II)

The long-term goal of this study is to develop a knowledge management system for National Center for Research on Earthquake Engineering(NCREE) in order to promote the sharing and effective use of the knowledge generated and accumulated from the NCREE researches. This study first takes advantage of Internet technology, which can distribute information in a quick and timely fashion, to establish the knowledge portal and knowledge application systems for NCREE. Two topics are selected as this year’s focus on development of NCREE knowledge base and its related knowledge application systems. The first topic is on seismic design for buildings. A seismic design knowledge website and a web-based forum for seismic design knowledge community have been constructed. The second topic is on management of the monitored structural strong motion data collected from a set of sensor-equipped structures in Taiwan. A web-based strong motion information management system has been developed.
