Steve:
Step 1: Go to https://sdlc3d.sun.com/ECom/EComActionServlet/DownloadPage:~:com.sun.sunit.sdlc.content.DownloadPageInfo;jsessionid=2B180343DF457F54F40C707C4D8972AD;jsessionid=2B180343DF457F54F40C707C4D8972AD
and
install "Windows Platform - Java Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 12"
(preferably select the "Online Installation")
Step 2: Go to http://earthquake.usgs.gov/research/hazmaps/design/index.php#install_java
and install "Java Ground Motion Parameter Calculator - Version 5.0.7 (3.5 MB)
"
Step 3: The "Seismic Hazard Curves &* Uniform Hazard Response
Spectra" display will open.
Step 4: on the very top right corner use the
pull down menu to choose the appropriate Code (in this case IBC 2006)
Step
5: Enter the zip code or the Latitude/Longitude to get the result.
P.S. Based on Dr. S.K. Ghosh suggestion, entering the Latitude/Longitude
will result in more accurate output. You can get the Latitude/Longitude from
google.com or other sites.

IBC Seismic Map CD
Good
morning,
The 2006 IBC refers
to a CD by Leyendecker, Frankel, and Rukstales for determination of
seismic design parameters. I have a 2000 IBC version of that CD, and it
is very helpful.
Is the newer
(apparently, 2004) version of that CD any different from the 2000
version?
How can I get
that newer CD?
TIA,
V. Steve Gordin,
