000019809 520__ $$2eng$$aThe evaluation and strengthening of existing concrete building has been an area of earthquake engineering that has evolved with great accomplishments since the earthquakes in Chile in the 1960s. The two authors have careers that span over 50 years since they first began their professional relationship and therefore they can provide examples of major accomplishments in ground motion estimation at a specific building site and also the analysis of the building performance for this ground motion. The first author was the PhD adviser of the second author in the early 1970’s. Both authors’ careers include being professors who worked with their students to perform research. Their careers also include participation in actual evaluation and strengthening projects of existing buildings. This paper presents some of the progress that has evolved over the last half century in earthquake ground motion estimation and the two areas of structural analysis: Structural Mechanics Structural Analysis and Structural Reliability Structural Analysis.
