Description

The purpose of the first project is to prepare codes that are used for cross checking to evaluate appropriateness of the seismic analyses for the safety examination of licensing procedure. The prepared codes should be independent of other seismic codes utilized in industry. The author explains new codes named SAN Series Codes.
