Ground Motion Records
Each file: select T column, Sa column, and component (EW / NS / GM)

SF range: – Lower bound:
1.0 = TBDY 1D/2D. For 3D (bound 1.3) the code requires the SRSS of each record's two horizontal components β€” build the SRSS spectra externally and load those; this tool averages the spectra as loaded.
Ξ± β€” optimised for highest RΒ²,  0 = no SF control,  higher = more uniform SFs
