(1) Acceleration response spectrum at 5 % damping factor <strong>of</strong> the groundmotion on the open engineering bedrock (a soil layer located below thestructure with sufficient thickness and rigidity having a shear wavevelocity larger than 400 m/sec, free from the effect <strong>of</strong> surface soil layersabove) shall satisfy the values given in Table 1, and the amplification <strong>of</strong>ground motion by surface geology should be considered in defining thedesign ground motion.Table 1.
