Estimation of Local Site Effect on Earthquake Ground Motions for Sites in the State of Haryana, India
One-dimensional nonlinear site response analysis has been carried out to determine site-specific parameters for earthquake resistant design for the state of Haryana. The geotechnical data have been collected from various government and private organizations to have assessment of the soil properties and depth of ground water table in the study area. Shear modulus (Gmax) value has been calculated for each soil layer at different sites using blow count values from standard penetration test (SPT) data. An extensive literature review has been carried out for the selection of appropriate correlation between Gmax and SPT N-value. The sites have been classified on the basis of average SPT N-value for the soil profile above bedrock as per the recommendations of National Earthquake Hazards Reduction Program (NEHRP). Site response has been formulated in terms of amplification factor for peak ground acceleration (PGA). The results show that the soils in Haryana are capable of amplifying earthquake ground motions. Therefore, a site-specific design approach should be adopted for important structures.
