Site Parameters Needed

• Rrup
• Rjb
• Rx (incorrectly estimated in Bradley 2010)
• Rtvz (nominally None)
• Vs30
• Z1p0 (estimated from vs30)
• Z2p5 
• Zvs (CampbellBozorgina's name for Z2p5 parameter)

• siteclass - 'hardrock';'rock';'hardsoil';'mediumsoil';'softsoil' (also called siteType)

  • %Hardrock 'hardrock'                      1100                   A

  • %SCI          'rock' T=0.2s                600                 A , B

  • %SCII     'hardsoil' 0.2<T<0.4s        300<V30<600               C

  • %SCIII  'mediumsoil' 0.4<T<0.6s        200<V30<300               D

  • %SCIV     'softsoil' T<0.6s              V30<200               E , F

Fault Parameters Needed

• Mw
• rake
• dip
• Ztor
• rupture_type (Normal (N), Reverse(R), Strike-Slip(SS), Unknown (None))
  • This is currently estimated by R <- 45 < rake < 135; N <- -135 < rake < -45; SS <- 0 < abs(rake) < 45, 135 < abs(rake) < 180,
• faultstyle (reverse, interface, slab)
• h - focal depth (km) (hypocentral depth)
