A probabilistic seismic hazard analysis gives

  • A.a motion level with a stated probability of exceedance
  • B.the motion from one specified earthquake scenario
  • C.the date on which the design earthquake will occur
  • D.the intensity observed in the last large earthquake

Answer: A

It integrates over all sources, magnitudes and distances to state, for example, the acceleration with a 10 per cent chance of being exceeded in 50 years. A deterministic analysis instead takes one chosen scenario and asks what it would produce.
