Re: Spectral Acceleration using 2006 IBC

Be carful in how you use the USGS web site. If you
get to the right location it explicitly states that
the values are for the 2006 IBC. I initially used one
of the other options and got different accelerations.
If you are using the USGS website correctly you never
even have to think about whether it is 10% or 2%.
