Comparison of geophysical shear-wave velocity methods

open access: yes, 2007
Seismic hazard site assessment within the Canadian building code is primarily based on the average shear-wave velocity of the upper 30 m combined with an appropriate multiplicative amplification hazard factor. The least expensive and time-consuming geophysical field method to provide a reliable shear-wave velocity profile is therefore of great interest
