Rigid vs. Flexible Diaphragm Is MDD > 2 (ADVE)? D e SEISMIC LOADING S MAXIMUM DIAPHRAGM DEFLECTION (MDD) AVERAGE DRIFT OF VERTICAL ELEMENT (ADVE) Y N Assume Flexible Assume Rigid - 6-3

4 Rigid vs. Flexible Diaphragms w Stiffness K K K Flexible 0.25wL 0.50wL 0.25wL Rigid 0.33wL 0.33wL 0.33wL L/2 L/2-7 - Rigid vs. Flexible Diaphragms Diaphragm Flexibility The structural analysis shall consider the relative stiffnesses of diaphragms and the vertical elements of the seismic force-resisting system. Unless a diaphragm can be idealized as either flexible or rigid in accordance with Sections , , or , the structural analysis shall explicitly include consideration of the stiffness of the diaphragm (i.e., semirigid modeling assumption)

5 Rigid vs. Flexible Diaphragms SECTION 202 Diaphragm flexible. A diaphragm is flexible for the purpose of distribution of story shear and torsional moment where so indicated in Section of ASCE 7. Diaphragm, rigid. A diaphragm is rigid for the purpose of distribution of story shear and torsional moment when the lateral deformation of the diaphragm is less than or equal to two times the average story drift Rigid vs. Flexible Diaphragms Analysis.... A diaphragm is rigid for the purpose of distribution of story shear and torsional moment when the lateral deformation of the diaphragm is less than or equal to two times the average story drift. Except where diaphragms are flexible, or are permitted to be analyzed as flexible, Where required by ASCE 7, provisions shall be made for the increased forces induced on resisting elements of the structural system resulting from torsion due to eccentricity between the center of application of the lateral forces and the center of rigidity of the lateral force-resisting system

6 Roof Snow Load Data (on the Construction Documents) Roof snow load data. The ground snow load, p g, shall be indicated. In areas where the ground snow load, p g, exceeds 10 psf, the following additional information shall also be provided, regardless of whether snow loads govern the design of the roof: Drift surcharge load(s), p d, where the sum of p d and p f exceeds 20 psf. 6. Width of snow drift(s), w Flood Design Data (on the Construction Documents) Flood design data. ASCE 24, Flood Resistant Design and Construction, no longer uses the structure/risk category designation. Instead, ASCE requires each building and structure to be assigned to a Flood Design Class, which is then used throughout the standard to specify elevation requirements and floodproofing limitations. Other changes have happened for consistency with the terminology used in ASCE

7 Photovoltaic Panel Systems Special loads Photovoltaic panel systems. The dead load of rooftop-mounted photovoltaic panel systems, including rack support systems, shall be indicated on the construction documents Serviceability TABLE DEFLECTION LIMITSa, b, c, h, i CONSTRUCTION L S or W f D + L d,g Roof members: e Supporting plaster or stucco ceiling Supporting nonplaster ceiling Not supporting ceiling l/360 l/240 l/180 l/360 l/240 l/180 l/240 l/180 l/120 Floor members l/360 l/240 Exterior walls and interior partitions: With plaster or stucco finish With other brittle finishes With flexible finishes Interior partitions: b With plaster or stucco finish With other brittle finishes With flexible finishes l/360 l/240 l/120 l/360 l/240 l/120 Farm buildings l/180 Greenhouses l/120 7

8 Serviceability TABLE DEFLECTION LIMITS (continued) b. Interior partitions not exceeding 6 feet in height and Flexible, folding and portable partitions are not governed by the provisions of this section. The deflection criterion for interior partitions is based on the horizontal load defined in Section d. For wood structural members having a moisture content of less than 16 percent at time of installation and used under dry conditions, the deflection resulting from L + 0.5D is permitted to be substituted for the deflection resulting from L + D. d. The deflection limit for the D+L load combination only applies to the deflection due to the creep component of long-term dead load deflection plus the short-term live load deflection. For wood structural members that are dry at time of installation and used under dry conditions in accordance with AWC NDS, the creep component of the long-term deflection shall be permitted to be estimated as the immediate dead load deflection resulting from 0.5D. For wood structural members at all other moisture conditions, the creep component of the long-term deflection is permitted to be estimated as the immediate dead load deflection resulting from D. The value of 0.5D shall not be used in combination with AWC NDS provisions for long-term loading Serviceability TABLE DEFLECTION LIMITS (continued) f. The wind load is permitted to be taken as 0.42 times the component and cladding loads for the purpose of determining deflection limits herein. Where members support glass in accordance with Section 2403 using the deflection limit therein, the wind load shall be no less than 0.6 times the component and cladding loads for the purpose of determining deflection

9 Risk Category Determination Risk category. Each building and structure shall be assigned a risk category in accordance with Table Where a referenced standard specifies an occupancy category, the risk category shall not be taken as lower than the occupancy category specified therein. Where a referenced standard specifies that the assignment of a risk category be in accordance with ASCE 7, Table 1.5-1, Table shall be used in lieu of ASCE 7, Table Risk Category Determination TABLE RISK CATEGORY OF BUILDINGS AND OTHER STRUCTURES RISK CATEGORY III NATURE OF ACCUPANCY Buildings and other structures that represent a substantial hazard to human life in the event of failure, including but not limited to: Buildings and other structures whose primary occupancy is public assembly with an occupant load greater than 300.

Roofs Awnings and canopies: Fabric construction supported by a skeleton structure All other construction, except one- and two-family dwellings (portions of roof items not shown remain unchanged) Nonreducible Live Loads Partition loads. In office buildings and in other buildings where partition locations are subject to change, provisions for partition weight shall be made, whether or not partitions are shown on the construction documents, unless the specified live load exceeds is 80 psf or greater. The partition load shall not be less than a uniformly distributed live load of 15 psf

11 Live Loads Alternative uniform live load reduction. R = 0.08(A 150) (Equation 16-24) Such reduction shall not exceed the smallest of: percent for horizontal members supporting one floor; percent for vertical members supporting two or more floors; or 3. R as determined by the following equation Live Loads Section 202 DEFINITITIONS. VEGETATIVE ROOF: An assembly of interacting components designed to waterproof and normally insulate a building s top surface that includes, by design, vegetation and related landscape elements Occupiable roofs. Areas of roofs that are occupiable, such as vegetative roofs, roof gardens, or for assembly or other similar purposes, and marquees are permitted to have their uniformly distributed live loads reduced in accordance with Section

12 Live Loads Vegetative and Landscaped roofs. The uniform design live load in unoccupied landscaped areas on roofs shall be 20 psf (0.958 kn/m 2 ). The weight of all landscaping materials shall be considered as dead load and shall be computed on the basis of saturation of the soil as determined in accordance with ASTM E The uniform design live load in unoccupied landscaped areas on roofs shall be 20 psf. The uniform design live load for occupied landscaped areas on roofs shall be determined in accordance with Table Photovoltaic Panel Systems Photovoltaic panel systems. Roof surfaces covered with PV panels should be designed for the roof live load, L r, in addition to the panel loading unless the clear space between the panel and the rooftop is 24 inches or less. PV panels designed to be roof itself must be designed to support L r in combination with any other applicable loads. Ballasted PV panels must be designed per Section and meet the deflection limits of Section

13 Wind Loads Determination of wind loads. Exceptions: 6. Wind tunnel tests in accordance with Chapter 31 of ASCE 7 ASCE 49 and with Sections 31.4 and 31.5 of ASCE 7.

15 Flood Loads Design and construction. The design and construction of buildings and structures located in flood hazard areas, including flood hazard areas subject to high-velocity wave action coastal high hazard areas and coastal A zones, shall be in accordance with Chapter 5 of ASCE 7 and ASCE Flood hazard documentation For construction in flood hazard areas other than flood hazard areas subject to high-velocity wave action coastal high hazard areas or coastal A zones: For construction in flood hazard areas subject to highvelocity wave action coastal high hazard areas and coastal A zones: Earthquake Loads Mapped acceleration parameters.... The parameters S S and S 1 shall be, respectively, 1.5 and 0.6 for Guam and 1.0 and 0.4 for American Samoa. The US Geological Survey (USGS) has recently developed seismic hazard and MCE R ground motion maps for Guam and American Samoa; these are added to the existing maps in Figure

16 Earthquake Loads Amendments to ASCE 7. The provisions of Section shall be permitted as an amendment to the relevant provisions of ASCE Transfer of anchorage forces into diaphragm. Modify ASCE 7 Section as follows [only the modifications are underlined below]: Transfer of anchorage forces into diaphragm.... The maximum length-to-width ratio of a wood, wood structural panel, or untopped steel deck sheathed the structural subdiaphragm that serves as part of the continuous tie system shall be 2.5 to Photovoltaic Panel Systems 1613 EARTHQUAKE LOADS Ballasted photovoltaic panel systems. Ballasted, roof-mounted photovoltaic panel systems need not be rigidly attached to the roof or supporting structure. Ballasted nonpenetrating systems shall be designed and installed only on roofs with slopes not more than 1 unit vertical in 12 units horizontal. Ballasted nonpenetrating systems shall be designed to resist sliding and uplift resulting from lateral and vertical forces as required by Section 1605, using a coefficient (continues)

In structures assigned to, Seismic Design Category C, D, E or F, ballasted nonpenetrating systems shall be designed to accommodate seismic displacement determined by nonlinear response-history analysis or shake-table testing, using input motions consistent with ASCE 7 lateral and vertical seismic forces for nonstructural components on roofs Supplement No. 1 to ASCE

18 Special Moment Frames in High- SDC Structures Special Moment Frames in Structures Assigned to Seismic Design Categories D through F. For structures assigned to Seismic Design Categories D, E, or F, awhere a special moment frame is required by Table due to the structural system limitations, the frame shall be continuous to the base Special Moment Frames in High- SDC Structures Special Moment Frames in Structures Assigned to Seismic Design Categories D through F. (Contd.) A special moment frame that is used but not required by Table , shall notis permitted to be discontinued above the base and supported by a more rigid system with a lower response modification coefficient, R., unless provided that the requirements of Sections and are met. Where a special moment frame is required by Table , the frame shall be continuous to the foundation

19 Special Moment Frames in High- SDC Structures The original ASCE 7-10 language, if incorrectly interpreted, as happened often, was overly restrictive. The modification clarifies that it is not necessary to carry the moment-resisting frames to the foundation, where the base can be taken above the foundation. It also clarifies that this provision is only intended for conditions where the designer is required to use an SMF due to a system limitation such as height limit. When an SMF is used by choice, such as in a low- SDC building, this section need not apply at all Elements Supporting Discontinuous Walls or Frames Elements Supporting Discontinuous Walls or Frames. Columns, beams, trusses, or slabs Structural elements supporting discontinuous walls or frames of structures having horizontal irregularity Type 4 of Table or vertical irregularity Type 4 of Table shall be designed to resist the seismic load effects including overstrength factor of Section The connections of such discontinuous elements walls or frames to the supporting elements shall be adequate to transmit the forces for which the discontinuous elements walls or frames were required to be designed

20 Elements Supporting Discontinuous Walls or Frames Elements Supporting Discontinuous Walls or Frames Addition to C :... Hence, the provision has not been limited simply to downward force, but instead to the larger context of vertical load. Additionally walls that support isolated point loads from frame columns or perpendicular walls or walls with significant vertical offsets, as shown in Figures C and C12.3-4, can be subject to the same type of failure due to overload

21 Elements Supporting Discontinuous Walls or Frames Redundancy Factor and Extreme Torsional Irregularity Redundancy Factor, ρ, for Seismic Design Categories D through F. For structures assigned to Seismic Design Category D, E, or F, and having Extreme Torsional Irregularity as defined in Table , Type 1b, ρ shall equal 1.3. For other structures assigned to Seismic Design Category D, and for structures assigned to Seismic Design Categories E or F, ρ shall equal 1.3 unless one of the following two conditions is met, whereby ρ is permitted to be taken as

22 Redundancy Factor and Extreme Torsional Irregularity Redundancy Factor, ρ, for Seismic Design Categories D through F. Commentary? A reduction in the value of rho from 1.3 is not permitted for structures assigned to Seismic Design Category D that have an extreme torsional irregularity (Type 1b). Seismic Design Categories E and F are not also specified because extreme torsional irregularities are prohibited (see Section ) Redundancy Factor and Extreme Torsional Irregularity

23 Approximate Fundamental Period Approximate Fundamental Period. The approximate fundamental period, T a, for masonry or concrete shear wall structures not exceeding 120 feet in height is permitted to be determined from Eq as follows: (12.8-9) Approximate Fundamental Period Approximate Fundamental Period. where C w is calculated from Eq as follows: ( )

24 Overstrength Factors for Architectural, Electrical, Mechanical Components ASCE 7-10 Section defers to ACI Appendix D for anchorage to concrete. ACI Sections D (d) and D (c) both require use of overstrength factor Ω o for design of anchors in concrete in SDC C, D, E or F where other anchor protection options are not met. These provisions replace the previous requirement in ACI to multiply the strength by 0.4. ACI does not specify the value of Ω o, and the commentary states that values for Ω o should be taken from ASCE Overstrength Factors for Architectural, Electrical, Mechanical Components Values of Ω o for nonstructural components are not specified in ASCE This omission is corrected by assigning values for Ω o in Tables and The values proposed are roughly correlated with the values of R p in that high values of R p are assigned an Ω o equal to 2½ and low values of R p are given anω o equal to 1½. Future research may permit the assignment ofω o on the basis of more defined criteria, but a greater degree of refinement is not warranted at this time

26 Nonbuilding Structures Not Similar to Buildings 15.4 STRUCTURAL DESIGN REQUIREMENTS Revise Table as shown below: For consistency with Table Steel Storage Racks Steel Storage Racks (Reason): This Rack Manufacturers Institute (RMI) 2012 Standard ANSI/MH 16.1 has been updated to include constructive changes that were generated from a previous ASCE 7 Seismic Subcommittee review of a then-proposed 2010 revision, as well as comments and reconciled negatives from an ANSI canvass balloting process for that earlier 2010 RMI MH 16.1 draft. Changes made to the 2012 edition of RMI MH 16.1 allowed Section to be deleted

27 Ground-Supported Storage Tanks for Liquids Ground-Supported Storage Tanks for Liquids Revise Equation : S ac = the spectral acceleration of the sloshing liquid (convective component) based on the sloshing period T c and 0.5 percent damping Ground-Supported Storage Tanks for Liquids Ground-Supported Storage Tanks for Liquids Add the following paragraph to the end of C Ground-Supported Storage Tanks for Liquids: The limit on Equation was revised to S DS to restore the original value used in FEMA 450, match the limit used in current tank standards, and to match the provisions in Section a intended for tank diameters less than 20 feet. The revised limit impacts the designs of tanks approximately 30 inches in diameter and less

28 CHAPTER 17 SPECIAL INSPECTIONS AND TESTS Used Materials Used materials. The use of second-hand materials that meet the minimum requirements of this code for new materials shall be permitted. (Reason): This is nearly identical to and is thus redundant here

29 Submittals to the Building Official Submittals to the building official. Requirements for submittal of reports and certificates related to construction that is subject to special inspections and tests are now clearly specified in the new Section Steel Construction Steel construction. Extensive changes are made to coordinate the special inspection and nondestructive testing provisions with the new terminology for structural steel elements in Chapter 22. Also, a new SDI standard (SDI QC/QA-2011) is referenced for the inspection of steel floor and roof decks. Welding inspection requirements of reinforcing steel are moved to Section , concrete construction. SJI standards (referenced in Section ) contain provisions for inspections of open web (continues)

To better identify the intent, revisions have been made to the special inspection requirements for wind resistance. Specific requirements for the inspection of wind-resisting components have also been clearly identified

32 Special Inspections for Earthquake Resistance Special Inspections for Seismic Resistance. Periodic special inspection of coldformed steel special bolted moment frames (CFS- SBMFs) is now mandated. In addition, several modifications to the special inspection requirements for seismic resistance have been made in order to clarify the intent Material and Test Standards 2012 IBC Section 1711 MATERIAL AND TEST STANDARDS The requirements for testing joist hangers in Section have been deleted entirely (in favor of referencing ASTM D7147 in Chapter 23) and the requirements for testing concrete and clay roof tiles in Section have been relocated to Section 1504 where performance requirements for roof coverings and assemblies are addressed

33 CHAPTER 18 SOILS AND FOUNDATIONS Geotechnical Investigations Rock strata Excavation near foundations The requirement addressing the evaluation of rock materials for foundation support have been updated to be more consistent with current geotechnical engineering practice. Where excavation will reduce support from any foundation, specific requirements aimed at protecting that foundation have been added
