Nominal Hazard Zones - Earthquake Engineering Research Institute
Certain types of faults are recognized as having predictable orientations and slip rates, allowing for the building code design to be based upon the expected maximum earthquake that might occur on that particular fault. However, there may be other faults in the site vicinity that are not recognized, but still have the potential to generate significant earthquakes. This is especially common in regions with a complex fault history, where the exact locations of all faults may not be well-known.

Development of a Uniform Hazard Response Spectrum for New ...
Recent research conducted by the Pacific Earthquake Engineering Research Center at the University of California, Berkeley, proposed a method for computing the NAH by making use of a nominal hazard spectrum (NHS) in place of the NEHRP maps. The NHS is the uniform hazard response spectrum that corresponds to a site's maximum considered earthquake ground motion (MCE).
