2 2016 Demonstrating Validation of Simulated BBP Ground Motions for Engineering Applications 1. Communicating to engineering users of simulations need and motivation for simulated ground motions knowledge and confidence in simulation technologies effective and appropriate use of simulations solicit feedback and suggestions 2. Gauntlet validations for engineering purposes simulated vs recorded records of past earthquakes simulated motions vs PSHA targets of larger earthquakes applicability of gauntlet metrics to CS/duration selection & scaling (?) 3. Engineering application studies informing PSHA hazard analyses and mapping NLRHA of tall buildings (MCE-level design validations) performance-based building assessment (damage and collapse risk) SCEC GMSV TAG Virtual Coordination Workshop Plans for the Demonstrations of the Efficacy of the BBP Validation Gauntlets Project N. Luco (USGS) et al Sept. 11, 2016

3 Participants and Tasks Task 1 Process latest BBP simulations through newlyimplemented validation gauntlets (Silva & Maechling) Task 2 Compare building responses to simulated ground motions from Task 1 against recorded ground motions (Deierlein & Zareian) Task 3 Demonstrate correlation between results of validation gauntlets and comparisons of building responses (Lin) Task 4 Convene a workshop with engineering practitioners and ground motion modelers (Rezaeian & Luco) SCEC GMSV TAG Virtual Coordination Workshop Plans for the Demonstrations of the Efficacy of the BBP Validation Gauntlets Project N.
