Seismic Analysis using IBC 2006

At this moment, NSCP seismic provision is based from UBC 1997. One major reason is that we have no several values of spectral acceleration being published by PHIVOLCS for ASEP use or say from whoever required institution. Unlike in USA, they have vast collections of maps of spectral acceleration on each states. However, there is possibility that NSCP in the future might also transition to this. That is, the zone factor of Z=0.4 in major portion of the Philippines will be replaced by many values of spectral acceleration to be used in seismic design.
