A fundamental issue that arises in the framework of probabilistic seismic risk analysis is the choice of ground motion intensity measures (IMs). A new structure-specific IM, namely, relative average spectral acceleration (ASAR), is being proposed herein, and a comparison with current IMs is performed based on (1) a large data set of recorded earthquake signals; (2) numerical analyses conducted with state-of-the-art finite element (FE) models, representing actual load-bearing walls and frame structures, and validated against experimental test; and (3) systematic statistical analyses of the results.
