Changes to the Site-Specific Procedures of Section 21.4

Derivation of Design Acceleration Parameters SDS and
SD1 from a site-specific design spectrum:
Base SDS on 90 percent of the peak acceleration of the
site-specific design spectrum (periods of 0.2s to 1s)
Consistently define domain of constant acceleration in terms of
90 percent of peak acceleration response regardless of the period
of peak response (within the range 0.2s to 1s).
Base SD1 on 100 percent of T x site-specific design

spectrum at the period of peak velocity response
(periods 1s to 5s)
Extend period range from 2s to 5s for Site Class D and E sites to
avoid underestimating response in the domain of constant
velocity

Root Cause of the Problem

Section 11.4 of ASCE 7-10 (ASCE 7-16) - Use of only two
response periods (0.2s and 1.0s) to define ELF (and MRSA)
design forces is not sufficient, in general, to accurately
represent response spectral acceleration for all design periods
Reasonably Accurate (or Conservative) When peak MCER
response spectral acceleration occurs at or near 0.2s and
peak MCER response spectral velocity occurs at or near
1.0s for the site of interest
Potentially Non-conservative When peak MCER response
spectral velocity occurs at periods greater than 1.0s for the
site of interest (e.g., soil sites whose seismic hazard is
dominated by large magnitude events)

Long-Term Solution (ASCE 7-22 ?)

Develop and adopt multi-period design spectrum approach
Not feasible in current code cycle (ASCE 7-16)
Multi-period spectrum approach will require:
Major reworking of seismic design requirements and
criteria now based on two response periods (e.g.,
Tables 11.6-1/2, Seismic Design Categories, etc.)
Development of new ground motion design values maps
(by the USGS) for each new response period of interest
Development of new site factor tables for each new
response period of interest (or site effects embedded
directly in ground motion design values maps)
11/13/2015
19
Short-Term Solution (ASCE 7-16)

Two Options:
Re-formulate seismic parameters to eliminate potential nonconservatism in ELF (and MRSA) seismic forces
Require site-specific analysis when ELF (and MRSA) seismic
forces could be potentially non-conservative
Perform a study to develop the technical approach and basis for
proposing changes to current seismic criteria
Develop new values of re-formulated parameters (Option 1)
Develop criteria for requiring site-specific analysis (Option 2)
Develop conservative values of current seismic
parameters for design using ELF (and MRSA) methods in
lieu of site-specific analysis
11/13/2015

Tentative Re-Formulation of Seismic Parameters

Add two new spectrum shape adjustment factors, Ca and Cv, to
Eqs. 11.4-1 and 11.4-2 of Section 11.4.3 which would define values
of SMS and SM1, as follows:
SMS = CaFaSS
SM1 = CvFvS1
(11.4-1)
(11.4-2)
Use the new values of seismic coefficients Fa and Fv

Calculate values of spectrum shape adjustment factors Ca and Cv:
Ca = CFa /F0.2
(e.g., F0.2 = Fa)
Cv = CFv /F1.0
(e.g., F1.0 = Fv)
Derive values of the parameters CFa and CFv from representative
target MCER spectra using the new criteria of Section 21.4:
CFa = 0.9 max{SaM[T 0.2s]}/Ss
CFv = 1.0 max{T x SaM[5s T 1s]}/S1

Conclusion
Temporary Solution. The new site-specific design
requirements of Section 11.4.7 provide a short-term
solution that can and should be replaced by a more
appropriate long-term solution in the next Code cycle
Multi-Period Design Spectra. A long-term solution would
necessarily include seismic criteria described by multiperiod MCER response spectra
Design Spectrum Shape. Ideally, multi-period design
spectra would directly incorporate site, basin and other
effects that influence the shape (i.e., frequency content)
of the design spectrum

New data shake quake strategy Analysis of foreign
disasters may allow state to ease strict building codes
Deierlein, deputy director of the Pacific Earthquake Engineering Center
at UC Berkeley, is among dozens of consultants, professors and
government scientists who toiled to understand implications of data from
Taiwan, Turkey and other recent deadly quakes.
The result was a set of five attenuation equations that can be used to
predict how much a given quake, in a given spot, will make different types
of ground shudder miles away.
For much of California, that means 10 percent to 35 percent less shaking,
said Youssef Bozorgnia, associate director of the quake research center
at Berkeley.
We are so proud of these equations, Bozorgnia said, because they could
reduce construction costs by hundreds of millions of dollars in much of
coastal California, where new or retrofitted buildings would not need to be
as robust.

Comparison of Deterministic and Probabilistic CFs

Issue Do spectrum shape adjustment factors based on deterministic
MCER Spectra apply to sites governed by probabilistic MCER spectra?
Approach Compare values of the parameters CFa and CFv derived from
deterministic MCER spectra with those derived from probabilistic MCER
spectra for site of common site class, MCER shaking intensity (S1 and Ss)
and common earthquake magnitude (TL region)
Sites Considered - 9,050 sites in the more densely populated areas of
California, Oregon and Washington (90% of population; 6% of land area):
Probabilistic MCER spectra based on 2% in 50-year site-specific UHS
available from the USGS web-based tool: Hazard Application Data
Site Class and shear wave velocity (vs,30) data for each site obtained
from the OpenSHA web site
Values of various ASCE 7-10 seismic design parameters (e.g., Ss, S1,
CRS, CR1 and TL) were obtained for each site from the USGS webbased tool, U.S. Seismic Design Maps
