THE ESTIMATION TABLE OF THE RATIO OF SITE AMPILICATION FOR EARTHQUAKE-PROOF ASSESSMENT OF WOODEN HOUSE

Abstract

In order to carry out existing earthquake-proof assessment of wooden house based on the Limit Strength Evaluation, it is necessary to estimate the ratio of site amplification of ground. In this research, we developed the estimation table of the ratio of site amplification of ground. This table is made based on the result of nonlinear response analysis of over 3,000 bore hole data in Kobe city. It becomes possible to estimate the ratio of site amplification of ground in which the property of ground, period characteristics and input motion are considered, easily.
