Marafi 2 13 New Consensus Approach for Development of BAFs • Interface Subduction Hazard (based on recorded motions and M9 Project) • BAF = 1 at T=0 sec • BAF = 2 at T > 2 sec • DeeP Intraslab Hazard • Use recorded ground motions from local and regional earthquakes (e.g. M6.8 Nisqually, M6.4 Vancouver Island) • Shallow Crustal Hazard • Use basin factors from CamPbell and Bozorgnia (2014) GMM 14 Example Spectra • Increase from old to new sPectra • T=1 sec, 10% • T=2 sec, 24% • T=5 sec, 15% 15 Implementation of March Workshop Results • Structural community concerned about immediate imPlementation • TelePhone conference May 16 with geotechnical and structural Peer reviewers, geotechnical consultants to discuss Potential delay in imPlementation • Schedule of imPlementation • Director’s Rule 20-2018 • December 1, 2018 • All designs using site-specific ground motion Procedures shall incorporate basin effects 16 On the horizon… • NGA Subduction GMMs • Will they include basin terms? • Geotechnical and seismological community will need to evaluate applicability to the Seattle Basin • How do we incorporate NGA Subduction and M9 results? • Had initial discussion during March 2018 workshoP • 2018 National Seismic Hazard MaP uPdate to include basin factors from 2013 SDCI/USGS workshoP 17 QUESTIONS?
