 | IncludePeakGroundAcceleration | Indicates whether Touchstone reports the peak ground accelaration (PGA) for earthquake events during a Hazard Analysis.
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. |
| IncludeSpectralAccelaration03 | Indicates whether Touchstone reports the spectral accelerations of 0.3 seconds or higher for earthquake events during a Hazard Analysis.
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. |
| IncludeSpectralAcceleration10 | Indicates whether Touchstone reports the spectral accelerations of 1.0 second or higher for earthquake events during a Hazard Analysis.
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. |
