Preliminary indications and future developments. In this chapter, an original analysis has been proposed aiming at selecting stations from the ITACA dataset that mostly contribute to the dispersion of the EGMPE that have recently been proposed in the framework of this Project. The goal of this analysis is twofold. On one side, it may either point out stations that have been misclassified from the point of view of site conditions, or it may suggest criteria for improving seismic site classification, as planned within Task 5 of this Project. On the other side, related to the objectives of Task 4 this Deliverable is referring to, the selected station may fall outside the dispersion bands for any site classification criterion under consideration, so that it can be considered to show some distinctive features of site response, probably related to a complex geological configuration (deep closed shape basin, steep topographic irregularity, etc.) not accounted for in the most common seismic site classification schemes. For this reason, two EGMPEs have been proposed and considered in this study, that, although based essentially on the same dataset, are very different in terms of site condition description: the idea is that stations falling outside the dispersion bands of both equations may be highlighted as potentially affected by complex site effects. The future developments, planned to complete the work described in this chapter, are summarized as follows: i) Identification of stations falling outside the dispersion bands of both EGMEs considered and check of this information with the help of the geo-morphological criteria that will be introduced in the following Chapter 4. ii) Specific detailed analysis of rock stations, in order to understand whether complex site effects related to topography, lateral discontinuities or hard vs. soft rock conditions may help to better discriminate the station seismic response iii) Identification and list of anomalous seismic events within the ITACA database. c) Figure 3.8 Residues as a function of period for 9 representative stations for soil class 0 (a), 1 (b) and 2 (c).

  • DEVELOPMENT OR ASSISTANCE IN DEVELOPMENT OF SPECIFICATIONS REQUIREMENTS/ STATEMENTS OF WORK

  • Sustainable Development 4.1 The Authority will review the Contractor’s Sustainable Development Policy Statement and Sustainable Development Plan submitted by the Contractor in accordance with the Schedule (Sustainable Development Requirements) and then at least annually thereafter. 4.2 Sustainable Procurement Risk Assessment Methodology (SPRAM) is a tool used by the Authority to identify and mitigate any potential risks to sustainability in contracts. The process requires that each Contract be assessed for its potential social, economic and environmental risks, throughout the various stages of its lifetime. Where risks are identified, appropriate mitigation action is required to reduce or eliminate the risk to sustainability. The Authority may at times require input from the Contractor in order to ensure that this process is given the required levels of consideration.
