    Converting USGS seismic parameters to Canadian Code parameters

    Thanks for your reply TLHS. I have checked and you are right. This is a two story 700m2 building and I'm using the Equivalent Static Force Procedure. The procedure includes a variable called Mv. Mv depends of Sa(0.2)/Sa(2.0) but I don't have Sa(2.0). This is why I'm looking for those values.

    Converting USGS seismic parameters to Canadian Code parameters

    I'm working on project in Haiti. I have been able to obtained the Ss and S1 which are equivalent to Sa(0.2) and Sa(1.0) respectively in the Canadian Building Code. However, I need to obtain Sa(0.5) and S(2.0). Any idea on how to get these values from Ss and S1?
