AB  - This paper examines issues related to ground-motion selection for the performance of site response analysis and the integration of the site-specific amplification function within probabilistic seismic hazard calculations. The, typically, deterministic modification of the probabilistically estimated rock ground motions to consider site effects often leads to nonconservative ground motions at the soil surface. In this paper a methodology proposed by Bazzurro and Cornell (2004b), which allows the transformation of a rock ground-motion prediction equation into a site-specific one by modifying both the median and standard deviation terms of the equation, is used and its sensitivity to different suites of ground-motion records is explored. Suites of 10, 15 and 20 records are used for the performance of the site response analysis in order to examine their impact on capturing the median site amplification and its standard deviation. Subsequently, their impact on the results of a probabilistic seismic hazard assessment is explored.
