Answer to Question #193541 in Civil and Environmental Engineering for varun reghu

Question

According to earthquake / seismic code in India, write down:

1.Changes of the zoning map and mapping of consequences with respect to action parameters and seismicity level.

2.Comparison of site-specific spectra and related (seismicity/zoning) parameters for the target area

3. Estimate of Fundamental period (T_1N) | Note: For training purpose take T₁ = 0.6 s.

4.Comparison of elastic spectral acceleration S_ae(T_1, D=0.05) as well as the (inelastic) design values for the target site considering the different code generations.

5.building types within seismic zones and Evaluation of building types (reports) included in the World Housing Encyclopedia (WHE).
