The equivalent water density overloading parameter of earthquakes.

Peak acceleration of design earthquakes0.1 g 0.2 g 0.4 g
Static water pressure of upstream (107 N)11.6
Earthquake hydrodynamic pressure (107 N)0.380.761.51
Earthquake inertial force (107 N)1.132.264.51
The total dynamic force/static water pressure0.130.260.52
