Selection and Modification of Ground Motions for the Linear or Nonlinear Response History Analysis

This video explains the process of selection and modification of ground motions for the linear or nonlinear response history analysis of structures. The following three demosntrations are included.
1) The selection and downloading the ground motion data from the Pacific Earthquake Engineering Research (PEER) ground motion databse.
2) The spectral matching of ground motions using Seismomatch and ETABS
3) Definition of time history load cases in ETABS
I hope that these demosntrations will be useful.

Dear Fawad Sir. I am pleased to share that in past i performed site response analysis studies for a offshore reclaimed island site in seismically active region for a big Client successfully, studies were vetted by a 3rd party from Italy. "Your lecture just revived my memories of SRA studies". Also we had used SeismoSignal software and PEER database. There is also seismoartif program but you can only use it for linear SRA for buildings structures, not for ground. Adopted ASCE code, used DeepSoil for SRA.

Thanks for sharing your knowledge sir....

Fawad Bahi excellent presentation, please see if you can present TH selection for big Pakistani cities like IslamAbad

Your videos are great and informative. Do you have a complete sequence so I can follow accordingly?

Thanks for your wonderful video Sir.
Please give explanation for the condition of three time history and 7 time history as per ASCE 705, To be applied in ETABS analysis for non'linear analysis

When we are scaling vertical ground motions, do we use the same scale factor ?

[titinnee]

hi sir, i wanna ask. is it accurate to use spectral matching method (ASCE) to scalling ground motion for analysis dynamic of DAM?

[c.j.]

hello sir... can u elaborate more about the difference between ETABS matching and seismomatch :)

Assalam ulaikum teacher i have problem in finding Ss and S1 value for my site in zone 3 of Pakistan in ASCE 7-10. for site class D can you help to provide these values?
