About this document
Eurocode 8: Seismic Action Overview by Ljubisa Kurcubic Kure is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document discusses Eurocode 8 and seismic action. It provides an equation to calculate peak ground acceleration based on magnitude and distance from the epicenter. A figure shows how ground acceleration increases with magnitude and decreases with distance. It also outlines that the ground motion is described by an elastic response spectrum and discusses the basic shape of the horizontal elastic response spectrum as having four branches.
