To select real strong motions for Chinese seismic safety evaluation work, we disaggregated the result of Chinese seismic safety evaluation work into specified earthquake scenarios considering magnitude, distance and earthquake variation, and then the condition median spectrum was constructed as strong motion selection target. The results based on conditional mean spectrum was compared with uniform spectrum matching result for a real safety evaluation project. The comparison result indicates that the result from the proposed method is consistent with target earthquake scenario, and the proposed method preforms better in matching spectrum shape within the whole period. Finally, a practical real ground motion selection method was proposed for Chinese seismic safety evaluation work.
