5a.seismic Loading Criteria

This document provides seismic design parameters for a project. It includes mapped acceleration parameters of Ss = 0.335 g and S1 = 0.102 g for site class D. Using site coefficients, the design response spectrum is calculated as SDS = 0.34 g and SD1 = 0.163 g, resulting in a seismic design category of C. Design parameters are also provided for a light frame wood structural system, including a response modification coefficient of 6.5, deflection amplification factor of 4, and approximate fundamental period of 0.29 seconds. The seismic base shear is calculated using these parameters and a seismic response coefficient of 0.053.
