Abstract
This paper is divided into two principal parts. In the first set of subsections we deal with features of the ground motion, and existing methods for arriving at the design response spectrum which is its most prevalent engineering use. In the second part we look at some specific forms of strong motion data obtained from structures and their engineering utilization.
