Strong ground motions recorded during earthquakes of May the 11th and 19th, 1962 in Mexico City

LEONARDO ZEEVAERT

UNIVERSITY OF MEXICO, MEXICO CITY, Mexico

Abstract

The ground accelerations during the earthquakes of May 11 and 19, 1962 were recorded in Mexico City on a soft clay bed that was formerly the floor of an old lake. Records were obtained from two accelerometers, one instrument was located in the basement of a multistory building and the other was located in a nearby park. Response spectra of the ground motions are presented and analysis is made of the local soil conditions with the view to explaining the characteristics of the spectrums.
