This study constructed a flatfile with the information useful to satisfy the site characterization
requirements of Korea Meteorological Administration's seismic network, which was …

The site categorization and corresponding site amplification factors in the current Korean
seismic design guideline are based on provisions for the western United States (US) …

Earthquake-induced hazards are profoundly affected by site effects related to the
amplification of ground motions, which are strongly influenced by local geologic conditions …

Site characterization and site-specific ground response analyses were conducted at two
representative inland areas in Korea. In situ tests included 25 boring investigations, 7 …

In the current Korean code, the site classification and the corresponding site coefficients
were determined similar to the UBC 1997, which were revised based on the results from the …

A new site classification system and site coefficients based on local site conditions in Korea
were developed and implemented as a part of minimum design load requirements for …

Korea is part of a region of low to moderate seismicity located inside the Eurasian plate with
bedrock located at depths less than 30 m. However, the spectral acceleration obtained from …

At present, because it is not possible to predict earthquakes except the case of detecting
seismic event a few seconds earlier by PS time difference, disaster preparedness is vital for …

A geotechnical information system (GTIS) was constructed within a spatial geographic
information system (GIS) framework to reliably predict geotechnical information and …

The 2017 Pohang earthquake (moment magnitude scale: 5.4) was South Korea's second
strongest earthquake in decades, and caused the maximum amount of damage in terms of …
