NONSTRUCTURAL COMPONENTS: FUNDAMENTALS AND DESIGN EXAMPLES – PART 2

The 2020 NEHRP Provisions developed major updates to nonstructural seismic design provisions which were then adapted for Chapter 13 of ASCE/SEI 7-22. The primary focus of the updates is the equation used to determine design forces for nonstructural components, but there are updates to other provisions as well. The training will be given in two parts. Part 1 will discuss nonstructural design fundamentals and cover two design examples. The portion on fundamentals will summarize:

The parameters influencing nonstructural response
The new seismic design force equation
How equipment support structures and platforms and distribution system supports are addressed
Other nonstructural provision code changes
