Abstract
P080 A shear wave velocity survey for seismic hazard zonation studies in Dehradun India Abstract 1 Dehradun the capital of Uttaranchal State in India has a long history of high level seismic activity which resulted at times in heavy damage to roads and buildings. In order to prepare a seismic hazard zonation map a survey was carried out to map the distribution of shear wave velocities in urban Dehradun and close surroundings. The Multi-channel Analysis of Surface Waves (MASW) as proposed by Park et al (1999) was used and data was collected at some 20 sites. Seismic data was collected
