the theme, “Building an Earthquake Resilient Pacific” consisted of Plenary
sessions in the morning and Concurrent sessions in the afternoon focusing on various topics on earthquake engineering - seismicity, unreiforced masonry, performance-based design, diplacment-based design, geothecnical engineering, base isolation, steel and concrete structures, risk assessment and geohazards. The following
papers from DLSU were presented in the
Earthquake Engineering sessions on Performance-Based Design and Damage Assessment, respectively:
1.
Del
Prado and Oreta, “Application of a Proposed Methodology on Performance-Based Assessment to a RC Heritage Building in the Philippines”
2.
Dy
and Oreta, “Seismic Vulnerability Assessment of Setback Buildings Using
Pushover Analysis.”
