In 2019, scientific journal “ACADEMIA. ARCHITECTURE AND CONSTRUCTION” published an article «Dynamic coefficients or response spectra of structures to earthquake ?» by E.N. Kurbatskiy and V.L. Mondrus [10]. The authors claim about necessity of normative documentation updating for seismic resistance estimation in terms of replacing the initial effects assignment through the dynamics coefficients graphs with the response spectra.

Inspired by the work of Kurbatskiy E.N. and Mondrus V.L., the authors proposed a number of improvements that will help eliminate the current inconsistency with modern knowledge in seismology and the current level of development of dynamic methods for seismic resistance estimation.
