This dataverse includes the ground motion database selected and scaled to be representative of downtown LA. These ground motions were originally selected and scaled in the study "Seismic Performance Assessment of Steel EBFs with Conventional and Replaceable Yielding Links Designed with ASCE 7-16" to be published in the ASCE Journal of Structural Engineering. The database includes 40 ground motions with scale factors at the MCE and DBE level hazards. The ground motions are selected and scaled to match the target UHS of ASCE 7-16 over long range of periods within the 0.13s – 5.0s, with limited dispersion. As such, they can be used for performance assessments of different structures with different period ranges. When used please refer to the original publications: 1.
