| Abstract | This Leading Engineering for America's Prosperity, Health, and Infrastructure (LEAP-HI) funded research project will examine how the combined effects of coastal flooding, saltwater deterioration, and earthquake motion impact buildings. Knowledge of how these hazards interact will be used to evaluate options for enhancing public safety and quality of life. Current seismic risk predictions only consider buildings in their pristine states. However, many buildings in earthquake prone regions of the |
