A total of 203 horizontal acceleration time histories recorded between 1986 and 2001 are taken from the Indian strong-motion database and their response spectra for different damping ratios are analyzed, statistically. ...

Floor response spectra (FRS) are used to compute the design floor accelerations for seismic design of acceleration-sensitive non-structural components (NSCs) in a building. In the present study, the elastic FRS at different ...
