Fa = Short-Period Site Coefficient
Fv = Long-Period Site Coefficient for a period of 1.0 seconds
SMS = Short-period design spectral response acceleration parameter [dimensionless]
SM1 = Design spectral response acceleration parameter for a period of 1.0 seconds [dimensionless]
SS = the mapped MCER spectral response acceleration parameter at short periods as determined in accordance with Section 11.4.2,
S1 = the mapped MCER spectral response acceleration parameter at a period of 1 s as determined in accordance with Section 11.4.2
SD1 = Design spectral response acceleration parameter for a period of 1.0 seconds
SDS = Design earthquake spectral response acceleration parameters at short periods

...

The map spectral response acceleration parameters SS and S1 are turned into the design spectral response acceleration parameters SMS and SM1 with eqEq. 11.4-1 and 11.4-2.

Wherein Fa and Fv defined below shows the local site coefficients.

Design earthquake spectral response acceleration parameters at short periods, SDS, and at 1-s periods, SD1, are determined from Eqs. Eq. 11.4-3 and 11.4-4.
