The procedure of random vibration analysis of linear structure subjected to spatial variation ground motion was deduced. A linear continuous beam subjected to spatial variation ground motion was established; By using the Claugh-Penzien self power spectrum model and Harichandran-Vanmarcke coherence function model, the influences of distance between supports, system damping ratio, and site condition on structural mean square response were researched, the results of parameters studies are useful for further studies.
