Ground Motions for Future Earthquakes
The time, location, and size of future earthquakes are uncertain. The ground motions produced by earthquakes of known magnitude and distance are also uncertain. This chapter discusses the uncertainty in future ground motions and the “acceptable” level of risk in seismic design. The design ground motions are expressed by their response spectra and/or time histories. Response spectra are needed for static analyses and time histories are needed for dynamic analyses.
