Abstract
This is the first of two companion papers on improved intensity measures of strong seismic ground motions for use in probabilistic seismic demand analysis. It describes the formulation and the development of new intensity measures. The second paper illustrates the application of the developed intensity measures in probabilistic seismic demand analysis. The development of the intensity measures was based on investigations of the seismic responses of three reinforced concrete frame buildings (4, 10, and 16-storey high) designed for Vancouver. The buildings were subjected to a selected set of seismic motions scaled to different intensity levels. Maximum interstorey drifts obtained from nonlinear dynamic analyses were used as response parameters. Based on the results from the analyses, two intensity measures are proposed: one for short- and intermediate-period buildings, and another one for long-period buildings. The proposed intensity measures are superior compared to that represented by the spectral acceleration at the fundamental building period (Sa(T 1 )), which is currently the most widely used intensity measure in probabilistic seismic demand analysis.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
