earthquake IN IBC 2003
(OP)
hi
HOW I GET S1 IF MY place is not in USA
AS PER IBC 2003 we will founnd that
Step 1: Determine the mapped maximum considered
earthquake spectral response acceleration at
short periods, SS, and at 1-second period, S1,
for the site location from Code Figures 1615(1)
through 1615(10).
but that map is useless for me so what can i do?
thanks

However, material properties and geological conditions varies from rigion to region, you need to collect those data locally to be practical and safe.
