Abstract: Abstract: This report is the fourth in a series of reports dealing with the development of adequate methods for predicting ground motion resulting from known foundation motion and the establishment of reliable and economical methods for the solution of isolation and motion control problems posed by present and future Army requirements. The first report dealt with the selection of an adequate test site for experimentation, the second report dealt with calculating and measuring ground motions, and the third with analysis methods for surface sources of vibration. This report presents tabulated ground motion data taken during pilot experiments at the Eglin Field test site, and represents a very brief, qualitative, theoretical description of the general trends of the data accumulated.
