Abstract

Compared to the coded based simplified method (Sect. 6.2), site specific response analysis (Sect. 4.3) is a more refined method to determine ground motions. As presented in Sect. 3.2.1, even though the P-waves arrive first and cause the vertical shaking of the ground, it is normally the shear waves that cause strong horizontal ground motions and possible subsequent structural damage .
