Geologi designed the workshop to look beyond 2014 and focus on cal Survey. A major component of NSF's role in NEHRP two key questions: is focused on NEES, a large-scale investment in a nationally distributed network of shared engineering facilities for • What are the high-priority Grand Challenges in experimental and computational research -- a national infra basic earthquake engineering research that require structure for testing geotechnical, structural, and nonstruc a network of earthquake engineering experimental tural systems (see Box 1.1 for a description of the existing facilities and/or cyberinfrastructure?

In addition, seven observers two key workshop questions. Four breakout sessions were from NSF and the broader earthquake engineering research structured along the dimensions described in Box 1.2, and community attended the discussions.

Gregory Deierlein discussed methods The first three presentations focused on identifying and for addressing the research needs and challenges for builddescribing the Grand Challenges. Laurie Johnson discussed ings, which he distinguished between those associated with needs and opportunities for networked facilities and cyber- either pre-earthquake planning, design and construction, or infrastructure in support of basic and applied research on post-earthquake response, evaluation, and restoration.
