Spectral response Acceleration Ss & S1 for areas other than U.S.
(OP)
Anyone who can teach me the values of spectral acceleration Ss & S1 of iran? We have a project located in that country using IBC 2000 code for seismic load calculation. the problem is, the contour maps provided in the IBC 2000 (also in ASCE 98) is for US only, how can we get the values of Ss & S1 for the said location? any links/info provided is greatly appreciated. thank you very much!

Are there any local building codes or ordinances, or officials enforcing the same, that could provide any insight?

You may find Ss and S1 values from the US Army Corps of Engineers TI 809-04 "Seismic Design for Buildings" Look at Table 3-3 on pg 3-13, for Iran:
Isfahan............................. 1.24 0.56
Shiraz............................... 1.24 0.56
Tabriz............................... 1.65 0.75
Tehran................................ 1.60 0.75 http://www.hnd.usace.army.mil/techinfo
Go too Engineering Publications, then Instructions, then TI and choose TI 809-04
if you don't know , let me know your email
