Designing to the Strongest Ground Motions determines the strongest ground motions from data, rather than predictions, and discusses the design of structures to withstand the strongest ground motions. Future ground motions are highly uncertain, but the response of structures to future ground motions will not be uncertain if structures are designed to the strongest ground motions. Uncertainty is not an option in the design of structures whose collapse can be catastrophic.
