this paper is devoted to compiling a site geology map for town of amiriyeh, from seismic macro-zonation point of view using geophysical methods of shallow seismic, down-hole seismic and resistivity surveys. in this map site geology has been classified based on shear wave velocity, according to the criteria for site geology classification offered in the iranian code of practice for seismic resis...

summary based on the results of the analysis of site effects, mostly those with shear wave velocity and the fundamental period chosen as the basis for classification. in revision of earthquake resistant design regulations for buildings, classification of lands should be subject to the field conditions, geological, geotechnical, geophysical, and laboratory tests.in this context, the average shea...
