【 摘 要 】

This paper presents a reliability study of spectral acceleration designs against earthquakes in Bengkulu City. Seismic Hazard Analysis of 1,968 events is performed to define the controlling earthquake event. Furthermore, the controlling earthquake is used as the scale factor to generate five input motions for one-dimensional seismic response analysis. The spectral accelerations resulting from the analysis are then compared to the updated spectral acceleration design. The results show that spectral acceleration designs are still able to cover the spectral acceleration of seismic response analysis. However, for the short period, the spectral acceleration of seismic response analysis exceeds the designed spectral acceleration. This is a matter of concern, since most of the building natural period in Bengkulu City is still categorized as short. In general, this study brings awareness to the design aspect considering earthquakes in Bengkulu City in order to reduce the possible impact on structures in the future.
