Belgrade, Apr 2013 Radmila Salic, MSc. 2 nd Project Workshop Improvements in the Harmonized Seismic Hazard Maps for the Western Balkan Countries| SfP | WP-2: Strong Ground Motion Database and Ground Motion Prediction Models [Current Progress, Time Table and Milestones]

Improvements in the Harmonized Seismic Hazard Maps for the Western Balkan Countries | SfP | Belgrade, April 2013 BSHAP | NATO SfP Working Packages

WP 2: STRONG GROUND MOTION DATA BASE AND GROUND MOTION PREDICTION MODELS Leading Countries: Macedonia, Montenegro and Turkey WP Duration: 12 months 1)Compiling the available strong ground motion data recorded by the improved seismic networks during BSHAP or previously occurred earthquakes using the outputs of earlier scientific projects; 2)Building a harmonized acceleometric databank by unifying the formats of the collected strong ground motion data; 3)Improving the databank by adding ground motion recording station information; 4)Investigation of available ground motion prediction models and their applicability to the region, comparison of results from different prediction models; 5)Final decision on the ground motion prediction models and their weights to be used in PSHA.
