Abstract

Ideally, if one uses abundant ground motion records or converts those motions into many corresponding individual response spectra, and takes these records or response spectra as earthquake loads input for a structure, the response and strength evaluation for the structure can be relatively reliable. However, in reality, this is not feasible.
