The purpose of this study was to conduct seismic hazard analysis for Al-Tajiat and Al-Zawraa stadiums using probabilistic and deterministic approaches. The stadiums of Al-Tajiat and Al-Zawraa are located at latitude of \({33^{\circ}}\) 25ʹ25.80ʺN, longitude of \({44^{\circ}}\) 17ʹ9.28ʺE and latitude of \({33^{\circ}}\) 20ʹ39ʺN, longitude of \({44^{\circ}}\) 22ʹ5.81ʺE, respectively. To assess the seismic hazard, the region was divided into five seismic sources, and the seismic parameters were calculated for each selected seismic source. According to the results obtained from probabilistic seismic hazard analysis, the maximum horizontal accelerations on bedrock for return periods of 75, 475, and 2,475 years are equal to 0.06, 0.12, and 0.21 g, respectively. The result of deterministic seismic hazard assessment proves that the maximum horizontal and vertical acceleration on bedrock are 0.31 and 0.16 g, respectively. In order to analyze the response of structures against calculated acceleration, studies related to response spectrum and design spectrum have been carried out based on statistical analysis of appropriate time histories. The computer program Equivalent linear Earthquake Response Analysis was used to process the selected records and to consider the effect of soil conditions. Design spectrum has also been presented based on the response spectrum of the selected time histories and then was compared with the corresponding ones in UBC 1997 and ISIRI 2800 codes. The comparison shows that the presented design spectrum is more conservative than the results provided by the above codes.
