摘要: ABSTRACTShear-wave velocity of the top 30 m, VS30, is commonly used for prediction seismic site response. This paper presents development, validation and uncertainty assessment a regional VS30 model based on combination simplified 3D geology statistically representative values. Results identify soft marine sediments in deep sedimentary basins as zones most susceptible to shaking. Compared available urban-scale zonation studies, showed success rate roughly 64% predicting local category. The standard deviation was average 30% expected value.
