Shear-wave　velocity　uncertainty　significantly　impacts　seismic　response　analysis　at　engineering　sites.　Previous　studies　focused　on　the　correlations　of　shear-wave　velocities　within　soil　layers.　However,　the　influence　of　the　vertical　spatial　variability　of　shear-wave　velocity　within　individual　soil　layers　was　not　considered.　This　study　selected　a　typical　Site　Class　II　engineering　site　to　investigate　this　influence　based　on　the　equivalent　linear　seismic　response　analysis　method　of　layered　soil　deposits.　Existing　field　test　data　on　shear-wave　velocity　were　used　to　discretize　the　shear-wave　velocity　within　soil　layers　into　a　one-dimensional　(1D)　random　field　through　covariance　matrix　decomposition　and　local　average　process　theory.　Monte　Carlo　simulations　generated　random　shear-wave　velocity　profiles　with　different　vertical　correlation　distances.　Three　artificial　records　with　different　earthquake　return　periods　were　used　as　input　motions　at　the　engineering　bedrock　for　the　1D　free-field　model.　Considering　soil　shear-wave　velocity　uncertainty,　the　peak　shear　strain　increased　by　19-27%　with　the　input　ground　motion　amplitude.　Moreover,　the　site　peak　shear　strain　variability　increased　by　25-34%　with　the　vertical　correlation　distance.　The　proposed　1D　random　field　model　effectively　simulated　the　interlayer　correlation　and　spatial　variability　of　shear-wave　velocity　within　soil　layers,　demonstrating　its　significance　in　seismic　response　analysis.
