During the Chilean earthquake of March 3, 1985, failures and excessive          movements of waterfront quay walls occurred in Valparaiso and San               Antonio, Chile.  Accelerographs located in both cities gave useful              records of measured ground motions, and information is available on the         construction and soil conditions at the site of the failures.  The              major objective of this research program is to use this information to          improve the understanding of failures; in particular, to test the               applicability and accuracy of methods for analyzing and designing quay          walls to resist seismic loading conditions.
