GEOLOGIC QUESTIONS ABOUT:

SEISMIC HAZARD ANALYSIS

What is the probabilistic seismic hazard analysis for this proposed dam? What is the acceleration that my structure will experience during its useful lifetime? What acceleration should my structure be designed for to prevent catastrophic collapse? What is the UBC site classification (A,B,C,D,E) that I should use in foundation design? Why do I care in Colorado?

 

Geophysical Solutions:

BEST METHOD: Long-Term Seismic Recording (M-17)

Honorable Mentions: Seismic Refraction (M-1), Surface Wave Analysis (M-9)
