Seismic hazard probability of exceedence conversion
Seismic hazard probability of exceedence conversion
(OP)
Hi,
We are conducting a preliminary study on a site. I am trying to ballpark our design seismic acceleration but I'm having trouble finding any data as it is in South America. The preliminary geotech report gave us 0.3g PGA with 50% exceedence in 50 years. Is there a way to estimate the PGA for 2% exceedence in 50 years?

Probably shouldn't use it for design without outside confirmation, but it's an okay start point.
