Soil-structure interaction is one of the most important reason for building damage ratio. The effects of soil conditions on probably damaged building units were determined, by conducting HVSR microtremor measurements. In this study data collection is handled during 30 min using three component seismograph measurements at 40 points in the Yuksekova region. HVSR peak period map shows that the fundamental period range between 0.4 and 1.6 s in the soft sediments units. Rock sites of the northern coast of Yuksekova period range between 0.1 and 0.2s. HVSR peak amplitude values are in the interval 1.5-6.0. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd.
