| dc.description | Abstract: There were no active faults either at the Eisenhower and Snell Lock sites or in the general area. The locks were determined to be in a seismic hotspot termed the Massena zone. The zone was given a floating earthquake of Modified Mercalli (MM) intensity of VIII which is the threshold of damage to properly built structures. Parameters for a Maximum Credible Earthquake (MCE) were assigned as horizontal peak motions of 0.83 g for acceleration, 35 cm/sec for velocity, and 12.4 sec for duration. The Operating Basis Earthquake (OBE) was assigned 0.46 g, 24 cm/sec, and 8.8 sec, respectively. A set of six accelerograms with response spectra was selected to be used with these parameters. | - |
