Abstract
Canada's 6th Generation seismic hazard model is the basis for the seismic design provisions in the 2020 National Building Code of Canada. The 2020 code uses mean ground motions of spectral acceleration at 0.2, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 5.0 and 10.0 second periods, peak acceleration and peak velocity for a variety of site conditions. Users of the 2020 code access seismic hazard values by using the 2020 National Building Code of Canada Seismic Hazard Tool which provides values for any site located in Canada. The online tool accomplishes this through the interpolation of a pre-calculated dataset. This Open File provides that dataset for users who may wish to access those values directly, and describes the interpolation methods used.
