Abstract

Elastic and inelastic spectra are derived, based on a set of records representative of Greek earthquakes. For the selection of the dataset, criteria of magnitude, distance and PGA are used. Recently developed techniques are used to correct and filter the noise and other errors in the records. Based on available geotechnical information, a classification of the dataset into three soil categories, compatible to the 2004 Eurocode 8 (EC8) provisions, is made. After appropriate scaling, mean elastic and inelastic spectra are computed both irrespective of, as well as for, each soil condition, and comparisons with the EC8 design spectra are made.
