Hi all, I need some help with retaining wall design. How seismic factors kv/kh (as in UBC97) or cv/ch (as in BCP) are calculated? also how to develop relation between seismic zone of BCP and UBC97? I mean Islamabad/RWP is classified as Zone 2B (PGA value: 1.6-2.4) however same city is classified as Seismic zone 4 in UBC-97, now the problem is that modern software uses IBC so I can used data of UBC97 but how do I find equivalence of seismic zone? Many thanks

May I ask how can I apply the vertical component of earthquake in response spectrum analysis in ETABS with the ACI, UBC, or ASCE code? Also, do I have to apply the redundancy factor for Response Spectrum Analysis?
