Abstract :Deterministic seismic hazard analysis is used to evaluate the effects of potential earthquakes. By using this approach, approximate peak ground acceleration insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(PGA); values can be estimated for the area of interest. In this research, the area which was severely affected by the 1970 Gediz earthquake has been studied to assess the PGA distribution. Detailed geological characteristics and scientific parameters insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(unit distribution, fault locations and attenuation relationships); are the main input for the results. Four main fault zones are used for modeling and according to marks, peak earthquake magnitude generated from the fault zones and type of geological units are the main interest for the location of the settlements
Keywords : Deterministic seismic hazard, 1970 Gediz earthquake, PGA, scenario earthquakes
