DEVELOPMENT OF DESIGN RESPONSE SPECTRAL SHAPES FOR CENTRAL AND EASTERN U.S. (CEUS) AND WESTERN U.S. (WUS) ROCK SITE CONDITIONS (1999)
In developing response spectral shapes for both the WUS and CEUS tectonic regions, three issues of particular significance arise: (1) selection of an appropriate normalization frequency and fractile level, (2) the paucity of data in the CEUS for M > 4.5, and (3) the likelihood that CEUS earthquake source processes for magnitudes larger than about M 6 produce significantly less intermediate frequency energy than corresponding WUS source processes. This paper deals with these issues.
