1613.3.1 Mapped Acceleration Parameters

Building Code 2015 of Utah > 16 Structural Design > 1613 Earthquake Loads > 1613.3 Seismic Ground Motion Values > 1613.3.1 Mapped Acceleration Parameters
JUMP TO FULL CODE CHAPTER
The parameters SS and S1 shall be determined from the 0.2 and 1-second spectral response accelerations shown on Figures 1613.3.1(1) through 1613.3.1(8). Where S1 is less than or equal to 0.04 and SS is less than or equal to 0.15, the structure is permitted to be assigned Seismic Design Category A.
