Elastic Seismic Response Spectra Comparison

This document compares elastic seismic response spectra for 5% damping at different hazard levels - the ASCE Design Basis Earthquake (DBE), NSCP DBE, and MCER DBE. It shows the spectral acceleration in g and seismic coefficient for periods from 0 to 5 seconds using the equivalent lateral force (ELF) method. The MCER DBE spectrum generally has the highest spectral accelerations and seismic coefficients across all periods.
