Abstract
The 2016 Gyeongju and 2017 Pohang earthquakes caused casualties and economic damage in the surrounding areas. Therefore, the importance of earthquake damage prediction and seismic design in the Korean peninsula has increased. Probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) is one of the well-known methods for predicting earthquake damage. The objective of this study is to construct Korean Peninsula seismic hazard maps of 5% damped response spectrum acceleration and peak ground acceleration, using PSHA. To consider the local effects for each site's classification, seismic hazard maps were constructed by considering the site amplification model. To conduct seismic design, uniform hazard response spectra (UHRS) were also constructed for the Korean peninsula.
