Resources for Performance-Based Assessment and Nonlinear Analysis for
World-Bank ATC-148 Project, Building Technical Capacity in Central Asia
to Design Risk-Informed Public Infrastructure Investments at Scale

One of the objectives of the ongoing ATC-148 project is to strengthen the technical capacity of local stakeholders on seismic risk analysis and design of risk reduction strategies. Accordingly, the project team is conducting training sessions in Uzbekistan and the Kyrgyz Republic in 2019. The following resources are compiled here for training attendees. All listed resources are available for free download.
