What is Caltrans ARS Curves for Seismic Design about?

This document describes seismic design criteria and provides elastic response spectra curves (ARS curves) for different soil profile types based on magnitude and peak ground acceleration. It defines six soil profile types from hard rock to soils requiring site-specific evaluation based on shear wave velocity or other factors. Figures B1 through B12 present ARS curves for soil profile types B through E, ranging from rock to stiff soil, for three magnitude groups, with peak ground accelerations given for both
