Site Response Analysis Considering Strain Compatible Site Period, Hoss Hayati, Robb E.S. Moss
Civil and Environmental Engineering
In practice it is common to estimate site effects using a single proxy, or single variable such as 30 m shear wave velocity (VS30) or site period. Many studies have investigated merits of proposed proxies with contradicting recommendations. Yet, most studies indicate the single proxy approach is less than ideal, resulting in large uncertainty. To provide a better understanding of components that drive site response, we performed a parameterized study on 19 shallow soil profiles with VS ranging from 150 m/s to 400 m/s. We propagated 74 input motions through each soil column using one-dimensional equivalent-linear …
