my.unimap-136642011-09-04T08:09:32Z Development of design response spectra for Northern Peninsular Malaysia based on UBC 97 code Taksiah, A. Majid, Dr. Shaharudin, Shah Zaini Fadzli, Mohd. Nazri Mohd. Rashwan, Arshad Zatil Fadhilah, Mohd. Suhaimi taksiah@eng.usm.my Alor Star Design response spectrum Ipoh Penang Island UBC 97 Link to publisher's homepage at http://www.myiem.org.my/ The main objective of this paper is to develop design spectrum based on UBC 97 for Northern Peninsular Malaysia, which covers Penang Island, Alor Star and Ipoh. Existing reinforced concrete (RC) structures in Malaysia have been designed according to BS 8110 without any provision for seismic loading. Although situated on the stable shelf, several places especially in Northern Peninsular Malaysia, which is Penang Islands, Alor Star and Ipoh have experienced ground shaking effect due to the long distant earthquake occurred in Acheh and Nias recently. Northern Penang are situated close to the earthquake tremors may demand a quick review on the existing design code for designing structures. This paper presents the design spectrum for Northern Peninsular Malaysia based on total 193 boreholes from site investigation reports derived using Seismic Design provision of 1997 Uniform Building Code. The results indicated that most soil in Northern Peninsular Malaysia can be categorised as class D, SD (stiff soil). Most of the soils categorised in SD, but the highest Response Spectrum Acceleration (RSA) are in other categorised, which is Penang Island for SC (0.76 g), Ipoh and Alor Star is SE are 0.31 g and 0.47 g respectively. 2011-09-04T08:09:32Z 2011-09-04T08:09:32Z 2008-12 Article The Journal of the Institution of Engineers, Malaysia, vol. 69(4), 2008, pages 23-29 0126-513X http://myiem.org.my/content/iem_journal_2008-179.aspx http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/13664 en The Institution of Engineers, Malaysia |
