Role of Nonstructural Components in Earthquakes

2001 Nisqually Earthquake (Filiatrault)

7

Role of Nonstructural Components in Earthquakes

In order for a building or facility to remain operational after an earthquake, both structural and nonstructural systems must remain intactIn past earthquakes

many hospitals and other facilities have survived earthquakes without structural damage, but lost functionality due to nonstructural damage50% of $18 Billion in building damage following 1994 Northridge earthquake was due to nonstructural damage (Kircher 2003)

In addition to structural response, compatible seismic performance of nonstructural components is essential to achieve global performance objectives

Code Requirements (ASCE 7-05)

International Building Code references ASCE 7-05 Nonstructural design requirements depend on:

Seismic Design Category of structureA-F, depending on occupancy category and site spectral accelerations at short (SDS) and long period (SD1)

Occupancy Category of structureI – low hazard to human life (storage)II – regular buildingsIII – high hazard to human life (schools, meeting rooms)IV – essential facilities (hospitals, emergency response center)

Nonstructural Importance Factor IP = 1 or 1.5IP =1.5 if component (a) is essential for life-safety; (b) contains hazardous materials; or (c) is required for functionality of Cat. IV structure

9

Code Requirements (ASCE 7-05)

Equivalent Static Design Force

= component amplification factor (1-2.5)= component importance factor (1-1.5)= component response modification factor (1-12)= short period spectral acceleration= component weight= normalized height of component in building

UB-NCS Testing Protocol

New protocol is being developed toSimultaneously apply displacement and acceleration demands similar to those expected in real buildingsTest systems with multiple attachment points at different floor levels (e.g. piping systems) and sensitive to both displacements and accelerations

Motions for bottoms and top level are determined for a given z/h ratio to match:
