| description | In seismic engineering, shear wave velocity (vs) is one of the most important
parameter for seismic microzonation and structural evaluation on the buildings with
consideration of soil-structure effects (ssi). This study is focuses on the seismic
microzonation of local soil and evaluates its effects on non-seismic designed
reinforced concrete (rc) building using bs 8110. Multichannel analysis of surface
waves (masw) surveys are carried out at fifty locations in penang in the
determination of seismic response of the local soil. Seven empirical correlationsbetween vs and nspt for all soil, sand, silt and clay in unconsolidated and residual deposits were developed. The masw result shows that penang can be categorized
into three site classes namely class b (very dense soil), class c (stiff soil) and class
d (soft soil) according to eurocode 8. To optimize the benefits of the masw result,
the indicative microzonation maps for vs30 distribution, site fundamental period and
soil amplification ratio for penang were developed using an integrated geographicalinformation system and image processing software, idrisi selva. |
