Assessment of seismic hazard is necessary in land use planning and hazard mitigation. It leading to subdivided a region into sub-region which different safeguards to prevent damage in case an earthquake is occurred. The quantitative assessment of seismic hazard is carried out in Sungai Penuh and Kerinci Regency using deterministic seismic hazard analysis (DSHA) method. Earthquake scenario of Mw 7 at depth of 10 km by Siulak fault source were used for analysis to estimate the ground motion over the investigated areas. The resulting DSHA map reveals high seismic hazard level in terms of PGA 49.8 – 71.9 gal alongside the active Siulak fault zones. The intensity of the region are dominated by VII-VII of MMI scale which puts in the high hazard zone.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
