Scaling a recorded accelerogram means
Answer: B
Correct answer: multiplying its ordinates by a constant factor
Scaling multiplies every acceleration ordinate by the same factor so that the record matches a target peak or a target spectral ordinate, leaving the frequency content and the duration untouched. That is its virtue and its limitation: the shape of the spectrum is unchanged, so a record whose shape is wrong for the site cannot be made right by scaling.
