Public Properties
 NameDescription
Public PropertyContains the peak ground acceleration of the earthquake event.

PGA, one of the key measures of ground-shaking intensity, is the maximum value of the ground acceleration and is typically referred to as motion in the horizontal direction.

 
Public PropertyContains the unit that Touchstone® used to report the peak ground acceleration of the earthquake event.  
Public PropertyContains the unit that Touchstone® used to report the spectral acceleration of 1.0 second or higher of the earthquake event.  
Public PropertyContains the spectral acceleration of 0.3 seconds or higher of the earthquake event.

Spectral acceleration, one of the key measures of ground-shaking intensity, is the maximum response of a simple building, with a single natural frequency of vibration, to earthquake ground motions. Spectral acceleration approximates what a building experiences as modeled by a particle mass on a massless vertical rod having the same natural period of vibration as the building.
