What is Site Amplification Factors Analysis about?

This document presents site amplification factors obtained from empirical studies of recorded ground motion data. The factors show the expected level of ground motion amplification for different soil site classes (C, D, E) relative to stiff soil sites (Class B), across a range of peak rock accelerations. The studies are divided into two categories: those that include data from the 1994 Northridge earthquake and account for nonlinearity effects; and other studies. Category 1 studies generally show consistent
