SYSTEMS THAT MAKE SENSE


INTRODUCTION<br />

INTRODUCTION<br />

What is <strong>Seismic</strong> Bracing?<br />

<strong>Seismic</strong> forces are exerted on a building and its contents during an earthquake. These forces act<br />

horizontally upon the structure itself, as well as the piping, cable trays, ductwork, and other building<br />

systems within. Typical supports for piping, trays, and other equipment are designed for the gravity,<br />

or vertical, loads but do not take into account the horizontal loading caused by earthquakes. <strong>Seismic</strong><br />

restraints (i.e. braces) resist the horizontal forces and keep the systems in place and secure. The main<br />

purpose of seismic bracing is safety- to minimize the loss of life due to an earthquake.<br />

<strong>Seismic</strong> Bracing Requirements<br />

The rules and requirements for the seismic restraints are published in the model building codes: The<br />

Uniform Building Code (Inter national Conference of Building Officials), National Building Code<br />

(Building Officials and Code Administrators), Standard Building Code (Southern Building Code<br />

Congress International), and the International Building Code. Each code is similar in nature, and has a<br />

chapter on structural forces which defines the level of seismic force that must be used in the design of<br />

seismic restraints.<br />

The amount of seismic force (as determined by the building code) is given as a percent of the<br />

components’ weight, or g-force. If the horizontal force is determined to be 50 percent of the piping<br />

weight, for example, the seismic force is .5g.<br />

The seismic "g-value" can vary greatly depending on the nature of the project. Critical buildings in a<br />

high seismic zone have larger g-value requirements than warehouses in zone 1.<br />

Factors that govern the seismic g-values used for design:<br />

• <strong>Seismic</strong> Zone<br />

• Soil Type<br />

• Building Type<br />

• Distance from known faults<br />

• Elevation within building • Anchorage Type<br />

• System being braced<br />

The design professional should use these factors and the applicable building code requirements to<br />

determine the proper g-values to be used for the project.<br />

This manual has been developed under the requirements of the 2001 California Building Code,<br />

and contains seismic bracing details that can be used for seismic bracing projects up to 1.0g (ASD) or<br />

1.4g. The brace spacing charts, required details, and rod loads must be determined for the specific<br />

g-value for the project and shall be submitted to the engineer of record prior to construction. The<br />

determination of the seismic force level shall also be submitted to the engineer of record and to<br />

OSHPD for hospital projects in the state of California prior to construction. However, the seismic<br />

force level need not be submitted to the engineer of record or OSHPD if included in the original<br />

construction documents. This brochure contains charts for a variety of g values, however custom charts<br />

can be created to reflect different g-values as required for the project. Contact B-<strong>Line</strong> Engineering at<br />

618-654-2184 with your requirements.<br />

A copy of the complete <strong>Seismic</strong> <strong>Restraints</strong> Manual shall be on the jobsite for the duration of the<br />

project. Appropriate shop drawings signed/stamped by the architect or engineer of record must also<br />

be kept. OSHPD reserves the right to review these upon request.<br />

GENERAL INFORMATION<br />

B-LINE SEISMIC RESTRAINT SYSTEMS a re designed to resist seismic loading while minimizing<br />

installation time and providing superior perf o rmance. On the following pages, several methods of seismic<br />

bracing are illustrated. The choice of brace design should be governed by the system requirements and location<br />

of supports.<br />

Actual applications may vary and are not strictly limited to the combinations of fittings and supports shown.<br />

Any changes to the depicted designs should be in accordance with standard engineering practices and be<br />

approved by OSHPD (California Office of Statewide Health Planning & Development) if necessary.<br />

For additional information on hangers, channels, fittings, and hardware shown, see the latest B-<strong>Line</strong> Strut<br />

Systems Catalog or Pipe Hangers and Supports Catalog.<br />

<strong>Seismic</strong> restraints are designed to resist the horizontal seismic force in two primary directions: Transverse<br />

(perpendicular) and Longitudinal (parallel) to the run. The braces are attached to the building with a structure<br />

attachment (for concrete, steel, wood, etc.) of various anchor sizes. Typically, the stronger the structure<br />

attachment, the greater the brace spacing allowed.<br />

The following steps detail how to use the brochure:<br />

Step 1: Select the bracing details for single pipe hangers or trapeze supports.<br />

Step 2: Obtain required force level (%g) from applicable code for local jurisdiction or from the structural<br />

engineer of record.<br />

Example: 2001 California Building Code<br />

As defined in the 2001 California Building Code, Chapter 16A, Section 1632A, the seismic horizontal<br />

force, F p , may be calculated using the following formula:<br />

F p = a pC a I p<br />

(1 + 3 • hx )W p<br />

R p h r<br />

Where:<br />

Except that: F p shall not be less than 0.7 C a I p W p and need not be more than 4 C a I p W p .<br />

F p = <strong>Seismic</strong> Force Level<br />

a p<br />

= Amplification Factor (Table 16A-O)<br />

R p = Component Response Modification Factor (Table 16A-O)<br />

= 3.0 for electrical, mechanical and plumbing equipment and associated<br />

conduit, ductwork and piping utilizing deeply embedded anchors. (Table 16A-O)<br />

= 1.5 for installations using concrete anchors with an embedment-to-diameter<br />

ratio less than 8.<br />

i.e. a 1 /2" diameter concrete anchor with an embedment of less than 4" inches.<br />

C a = <strong>Seismic</strong> Coefficient. This is a cumulation of several factors:<br />

Zone, Soil Properties, and distance from known fault.<br />

(Table 16A-I, Table 16A-J, Table 16A-Q, Table 16A-S, and Table 16A-U)<br />

h x<br />

= Element or component attachment elevation with respect to grade.<br />

Note: h x shall not be taken less than 0.0<br />

h r<br />

= Structure Roof Elevation with respect to grade.<br />

Special Note: This manual is based on allowable stress design (ASD), where as the seismic force level<br />

(%g or F p ) for non-structural components provided in building codes are based on strength design. For<br />

use in this manual, the seismic force levels (F p ) from the building code are converted to allowable stress<br />

design by dividing the result by 1.4.<br />

Example: If the building code yields, (F p ) = 1.4g, this value is converted to allowable stress design (ASD)<br />

as used in this catalog as follows: F p =1.4g/1.4=1.0 g<br />

Strength Design to Allowable Stress Design Conversions<br />

.21g from building code = .15g (ASD)<br />

.42g from building code = .30g (ASD)<br />

.63g from building code = .45g (ASD)<br />

.70g from building code = .50g (ASD)<br />

1.05g from building code = .75g (ASD)<br />

1.40g from building code = 1.00g (ASD)<br />

Example One, Deeply Embedded Anchors:<br />

Cable tray system is installed on the 1st floor of a 40-foot tall, 2-story surgical center in California. The<br />

cable tray is actually suspended from the bottom of the 2nd floor, which has an elevation of 20 feet<br />

above grade. Location of the surgical center is in seismic zone 4 with a rock soil profile.<br />

F p shall not be greater than, 4.0C a I p W p = 4.0(.40)(1.5)W p = 2.4g<br />

2.4g > .5 > 0.42g Therefore allowing the use of 0.50g<br />

To convert this F p from a strength design to an Allowable Stress Design (ASD) used in this catalog<br />

divide by 1.4.<br />

F p = 0.50g = 0.36g (ASD)<br />

1.4<br />

0.36g is the Allowable Stress Design <strong>Seismic</strong> Load Factor determined from the 2001 California<br />

Building Code.<br />

Special Note: A table for .36g (ASD) is not available in this catalog. When seismic force levels (%g or<br />

F p ) falls between catalog table values (i.e.: .15g, .30g, .45g, etc.) the seismic force level shall be<br />

rounded up to the next highest cataloged force level.<br />

Example: If F p = .36g (ASD), then use catalog tables for .45g (ASD).<br />

Example Two, Shallow Embedded Anchors:<br />

Special Note: Installations using concrete anchors installed with an embedment length-to-diameter<br />

ratio of less than 8, also referred to as shallow embedment anchors, have an adjusted Component<br />

Response Factor. The adjusted factor R p = 1.5.<br />

GENERAL INFORMATION<br />

e) In many cases, several short runs occur one after the other. Based on previous requirements,<br />

each straight run requires a longitudinal brace when the adjacent short runs exceed the maximum<br />

offset length (ft.). When the adjacent short runs do not exceed the maximum offset length (ft.) the<br />

longitudinal braces can act as transverse braces as long as the allowable transverse brace spacing<br />

(Appendixes 1 & 2) is not exceeded.<br />

In the following layout, transverse braces are used as longitudinal braces when the straight runs<br />

are less than the maximum offset length (ft.). When a straight run exceeds the maximum offset<br />

length (ft.) additional braces are required.<br />

f) When a flexible connection or swing joint is used, such as at a pipe drop to mechanical<br />

equipment, the pipe may cantilever at a length equal to or less than half the allowable transverse<br />

brace spacing (Appendixes 1 & 2). When greater than half the allowable transverse brace<br />

spacing, support to the floor is required as shown below.<br />

Step 4: Note the structure connection type (brace anchor requirements) from the Appendix,<br />

and select the brace anchorage detail to suit (pages 23 thru 38).<br />

Step 5: Note the hanger rod load from the Appendix, and select a rod attachment to structure<br />

to suit (pages 39 thru 56).<br />

Step 6: Check if rod stiffeners are required (pages 57 & 58) to prevent the hanger rod from<br />

buckling.<br />

<strong>Seismic</strong> restraints may typically be o m i t t e d for the following conditions where<br />

flexible connectors are provided between components and the associated<br />

ductwork, piping, and conduit:<br />

1. Fuel, medical gas, and vacuum piping less than 1 inch (25 mm) inside diameter.<br />

2. All other piping less than 2 1 /2 inches (64 mm) diameter, or:<br />

• All piping suspended by individual hangers 12 inches (305 mm) or less in length from the top<br />

of the pipe to the bottom of the structural support for the hanger<br />

• All electrical conduit less than 2 1 /2 inches (64 mm) trade size<br />

3. All rectangular air-handling ducts less than 6 ft 2 (0.56 m 2 ) in cross sectional area or:<br />

• All round air-handling ducts less than 28 inches (711 mm) in diameter<br />

• All ducts suspended by hangers 12 inches (305 mm) or less from the top of the duct to the<br />

bottom of the structural support for the hanger; where the hangers are detailed to avoid<br />

bending of the hangers and their connections. (To eliminate bending moment, flexible<br />

connections may be used. See B752 on page 49 or B446 & B446C on page 56)<br />

Where lateral restraints are omitted, the piping, ducts, or conduit shall be installed such that lateral<br />

motion of the piping, duct, or conduit will not cause damaging impact with other systems or<br />

structural members, or loss of vertical support.<br />

NOTE: Reference building code enforced by local authority with jurisdiction for specific<br />

requirements, and verify all omissions or exemptions with structural engineer of record.<br />

GENERAL NOTES FOR SEISMIC BRACING<br />

GENERAL NOTES FOR SEISMIC BRACING<br />

A) The seismic restraint assemblies shown in this pre-approval document are designed to resist<br />

vertical loading simultaneously with seismic loading (transverse & longitudinal loading). Design<br />

recommendations shown are for single standard weight steel pipes filled with water. Contents<br />

other than water shall be evaluated by the user. Pipes of other approved materials shall be<br />

supported in accordance with their approved installation standards. Details not shown in this<br />

pre-approval shall be submitted to OSHPD for approval before installation if necessary.<br />

B) This bracing system is limited to the pipe sizes and support details shown. Special<br />

consideration must be given for pipe material and connections, insulation, thermal movement,<br />

vibration, and building seismic joints.<br />

C) Transverse and longitudinal braces shall be no more than 45° above or below the centerline of<br />

the pipe, duct, or tray.<br />

D) All channel and pipe clamp nuts and bolts shall be tightened to the following torques:<br />

1/4"-20 to 6 ft.-lbs. (8 N•m)<br />

3/8"-16 to 19 ft.-lbs. (26 N•m)<br />

1/2"-13 to 50 ft.-lbs. (68 N•m)<br />

5/8"-11 to 65 ft.-lbs. (88 N•m)<br />

3/4"-10 to 75 ft.-lbs. (101 N•m)<br />

E) The transverse and longitudinal bracing spacing listed in Appendix 1 & 2 is based on ductile<br />

piping (steel, copper, etc.) with ductile connections (welded, brazed, etc.) and has the following<br />

limitations:<br />

1) Transverse bracing shall not exceed 40’-0” (12.2 m).<br />

Longitudinal bracing shall not exceed 80’-0” (24.4 m).<br />

2) Fuel piping shall have transverse bracing 20'-0" (6.1 m) o.c. maximum and<br />

longitudinal bracing 40'-0" (12.2 m) o.c. maximum.<br />

3) Non-ductile piping, and piping with non-ductile connections shall have transverse<br />

bracing 20'-0" (6.1 m) o.c. maximum and longitudinal bracing 40'-0" (12.2 m) o.c.<br />

maximum or 1 /2 of the calculated brace spacing indicated in Appendix 1 or 2,<br />

whichever is more restrictive.<br />

F) Transverse bracing for one pipe section may also act as longitudinal bracing for the pipe<br />

section connected to it, if the bracing is installed within 24 inches (609 mm) of the elbow or tee<br />

of similar size. Figures 2 and 4 do not serve as adequate longitudinal braces.<br />

GENERAL NOTES FOR SEISMIC BRACING<br />

G) Branch lines of a smaller diameter shall not be used to brace main lines.<br />

H) Where rod stiffeners are required a minimum of two hanger rod stiffener assemblies shall be<br />

installed. (Part number SC-228 or SC-UB)<br />

I) It is important to check anchorage details against the applicable building code requirements.<br />

<strong>Seismic</strong> design forces may increase substantially when anchors are considered “shallow”<br />

(embedded less than 8 times the anchor diameter).<br />

J) When bracing trapeze type hangers, the bracing shall be attached directly to the trapeze hanger<br />

assembly and piping secured to the trapeze assembly with pipe straps.<br />

K) A rigid piping system shall not be braced to diff e rent parts of a building that may re s p o n d<br />

differently during an earthquake. Example: Solid concrete wall and a roof (metal deck filled with<br />

lightweight concrete). Special care should be taken to avoid bracing rigid pipe on both sides of<br />

a building seismic joint without allowing for pipe and building movement.<br />

L) The pre-approval document is based on British Units (Inches & Pounds) and values noted in<br />

parenthesis (Metric or S.I. Units) are equivalent values. In case of conflicts, British Units will be<br />

the standards for evaluating the proper application of pre-approvals.<br />

M) The designer of the structure shall determine the adequacy of the support structure to carry the<br />

load of the piping and equipment. Engineer of record for a site specific project shall verify that<br />

the structure can support the connection loads of the hanger rod and the bracing attachments<br />

in addition to all other loads. This pre-approval document is not intended for the seismic design<br />

of the piping itself. The dynamic properties of the building structure and piping should be<br />

considered when selecting the type of piping to be installed.<br />

N) <strong>Seismic</strong> bracing shall not limit the expansion and contraction of the piping system. Always<br />

consider thermal movements when selecting brace locations and materials. The design for<br />

thermal movements is beyond the scope of OSHPD pre-approval.<br />

P) No portion of this pre-approval shall be taken out of context and used in other systems,<br />

design or purpose.<br />

Q) On transverse bracing, the pipe insulation material may be part of the brace assembly (i.e) in<br />

the load path. In this case the insulating material shall be capable of withstanding the lateral<br />

forces without damage and shall include a pipe shield for hangers or a pipe saddle for rollers.<br />

For longitudinal bracing, clamping must be applied directly to the pipe with any insulation<br />

being installed directly over the hanger and brace assembly. In these applications the<br />

mechanical engineer of record shall be contacted for insulating recommendations.<br />

*Slotted channel (SH) versions of all the above types may also be used for brace members.<br />

See page 21 for channel details.<br />

**The Structure Connection Type is the brace anchorage requirement.<br />

See pages 23 - 38 for brace attachment details.<br />

Note: Do not exceed the maximum brace length or maximum structure connection<br />

type for the channels listed.<br />

Commentary:<br />

Appendix 1 & 2 list the allowable structure connection type (I, II, III, IV, or V) for each brace spacing listed. The<br />

structure connection type limits the amount of axial load (in tension or compression) which is applied to the<br />

brace member. The axial load is listed for each structure connection detail on pages 23 - 38, and is as follows:<br />

Structure Connection Type<br />

Maximum Axial Load in Brace Member<br />

I . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 175 lbs. (0.78 kN)<br />

II . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 300 lbs. (1.33 kN)<br />

V . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 975 lbs. (4.33 kN)<br />

The B-<strong>Line</strong> channel brace member must have a capacity greater than the value listed in the above table for the<br />

maximum recommended brace length.<br />

TRAPEZE BRACING<br />

Trapeze Assembly Bracing<br />

1). Layout piping and/or conduit runs and determine number, size and location of items to be supported by<br />

the trapeze<br />

2). Determine trapeze support spacing (L T ). This is usually determined by the maximum support spacing of<br />

the smallest pipe or conduit on the trapeze.<br />

3). Select trapeze supports.<br />

a). Determine the total vertical load (T L ) for each trapeze.<br />

T L = L T x W T<br />

T L = Total vertical load for each trapeze support (lbs.)<br />

L T = Trapeze support spacing (ft.)<br />

W T = Weight of all piping, cable tray, ductwork, conduit, etc. in lbs./ft. supported by the trapeze<br />

b). Determine length of trapeze, making sure sufficient length is added to attach the all threaded rod and<br />

bracing attachments. All channel nuts shall be fully engaged within strut.<br />

( 13 /16” (20mm) minimum distance from edge of strut to center line of bolt.)<br />

c). Select type of trapeze member (B22, B22AMIG, etc.) by selecting a member with loading greater<br />

than the total load (T L ). See Table 4 on page 22 for strut loading data, noting that the trapeze beam<br />

span is the distance between the hanger rods. Also determine whether the applied load is uniform or<br />

concentrated, and follow notes on page 22 accordingly. Variations in pipe sizes (simular to concentrated<br />

load assembly on page 22) shall be treated as a concentrated load, where as same sized pipes evenly<br />

distributed across the span (similar to uniform load assembly on page 22) may be treated as a uniform<br />

load. Uniform loads on page 22 are converted to a concentrated load by a 50% reduction. Do not<br />

exceed the beam span length given by Table 4A on page 22, which limits overloading due to<br />

longitudinal seismic force.<br />

d). Determine hanger rod size from Appendix 2 based on total weight (W T ) and trapeze support spacing<br />

(L T ). Rod sizes are given for trapeze supports with braces attached and unbraced trapezes.<br />

e). Select a hanger rod connection to structure (pages 39 thru 56) that is greater than the hanger rod loads<br />

listed in Appendix 2.<br />

4). Select transverse and longitudinal bracing.<br />

a). Select bracing detail from Figures 9 - 11.<br />

b). Determine spacing of transverse / longitudinal bracing from Appendix 2 based on total weight (Wt)<br />

and the trapeze support span (Lt). Note the corresponding structure attachment type (Roman numeral<br />

I - V) for each possible brace interval. When supporting multiple pipe sizes, do not exceed the<br />

maximum spacing for the smallest pipe as given in Appendix 1.<br />

Verify that the specific forces do not exceed the capacity of the pipe clamps on pages 70 & 71.<br />

Take care not to exceed maximum allowable brace beam spans as noted on page 11.<br />

Consult Table 4 and Table 4A, page 22, for trapeze design considerations.<br />

c). Determine if rod stiffener is required (pages 57 & 58).<br />

d). Engineer of record for a site specific project shall verify that the structure can support the<br />

connection loads in addition to all other loads.<br />

5). Review the design and revise layout where loads exceed the limitations of the hanger rods, strut trapeze<br />

supports, or connection details.<br />

STRUCTURAL ATTACHMENTS<br />

Brace Structural Attachment Selection Procedure<br />

1) Determine structure to be attached to from the following:<br />

A) Concrete<br />

B) Wood Beam<br />

C) Structural Steel<br />

2) Reference structure connection type from Appendix 1 & 2.<br />

3) Choose appropriate structural detail that meets structure connection type. (I, II, III, IV or V) pages 24<br />

thru 38.<br />

4) Determine anchor size. On concrete structure attachments, calculate minimum embedment and minimum<br />

distance between anchors.<br />

General Notes For Concrete Attachments<br />

1) The “minimum embedment” values given on pages 24 - 30 provide the anchor capacity to reach the<br />

design loads shown, but may be considered by the 1997 UBC to be “shallow” anchors (embedment less<br />

that 8 times the anchor diameter). Using “shallow” anchors may increase the design seismic forc e ,<br />

depending on the building code used. As an alternative, consider using the following values to avoid<br />

“shallow anchor” issues:<br />

Anchor Bolt Dia.“8x” Embedment<br />

3/8” 3” (76mm)<br />

1/2” 4” (101mm)<br />

5/8” 5” (127mm)<br />

3/4” 6” (152mm)<br />

2) Size and number of expansion anchors is based on "without special inspection" values given in ICBO<br />

(International Conference of Building Officials) Report No. 1385 dated September 1, 2004, Hilti Kwik<br />

Bolt 3 Carbon Steel Allowable Tension and Shear Values.<br />

3) Other anchors may be used providing they are listed in an ICBO ES Evaluation Report, which was tested<br />

in accordance with AC01, including the seismic qualification tests of AC01 Section 5.6. These values<br />

must meet or exceed the values provided in ICBO Report No. 1385, and must be approved by the<br />

structural engineer of record. OSHPD change order is required for California hospitals.<br />

4) For California Essential Facilities, 50% of the expansion type anchor (alternate anchors in a group) shall<br />

be proof tested per Appendix 3. Other projects may have similar requirements, check local codes and<br />

ordinances.<br />

5) Cast in place concrete anchors require special inspection as indicated in the building code for the local<br />

jurisdiction.<br />

6) When slab thickness is less than the minimum allowable, but in excess of the minimum anchor<br />

embedment, a thru bolt approach may be used if approved by the site engineer.<br />

7) When installing drill-in anchors in existing non-prestressed reinforced concrete, use care and caution to<br />

avoid cutting or damaging the existing re i n f o rcing bars. When installing them into existing pre s t re s s e d<br />

concrete (pre-or post-tensioned), locate the prestressed tendons by using a non-destructive method prior<br />

to installation. Exercise extreme care and caution to avoid cutting or damaging the tendons during<br />

installation. Maintain a minimum clearance of 1 inch (25mm) between the reinforcement and the drilled-in<br />

anchor.<br />

HANGER ROD ATTACHMENTS<br />

Hanger Rod Structure Attachments<br />

Selection Procedure<br />

1) Determine structure type to attach hanger rod<br />

A) Concrete<br />

B) Wood Beam<br />

C) Structural Steel<br />

2) Reference rod size and hanger rod load from Appendix 1 & 2.<br />

3) Select a hanger rod attachment detail with a load capacity that meets the hanger rod load<br />

General Notes For Concrete Attachments<br />

1) The “minimum embedment” values given on pages 40 - 43 provide the anchor capacity to reach the design loads<br />

shown, but may be considered by the 1997 UBC to be “shallow” anchors (embedment less that 8 times the anchor<br />

diameter). Using “shallow” anchors may increase the design seismic force, depending on the building code used.<br />

As an alternative, consider using the following values to avoid “shallow anchor” issues:<br />

Anchor Bolt Dia. “8x” Embedment<br />

3/8” 3” (76mm)<br />

1/2” 4” (101mm)<br />

5/8” 5” (127mm)<br />

3/4” 6” (152mm)<br />

2) Size and number of expansion anchors is based on "without special inspection" values given in ICBO (International<br />

Conference of Building Officials) Report No. 1385 dated September 1, 2004, Hilti Kwik Bolt 3 Carbon Steel<br />

Allowable Tension and Shear Values.<br />

3) Other anchors may be used providing they are listed in an ICBO ES Evaluation Report, which was tested in accordance<br />

with AC01, including the seismic qualification tests of AC01 Section 5.6. These values must meet or<br />

exceed the values provided in ICBO Report No. 1385, and are approved by the structural engineer of record.<br />

OSHPD change order is required for California hospitals.<br />

4) For California hospitals and schools, 50% of the expansion type anchor (alternate anchors in a group) shall be<br />

proof tested per Appendix 3. Other projects may have similar requirements, check local codes and ordinances.<br />

5) Cast in place concrete anchors require special inspection as indicated in the building code for the local<br />

jurisdiction.<br />

6) When slab thickness is less than the minimum allowable, but in excess of the minimum anchor embedment, a thru<br />

bolt approach may be used if approved by the site engineer.<br />

7) When installing drill-in anchors in existing non-prestressed reinforced concrete, use care and caution to avoid<br />

cutting or damaging the existing reinforcing bars. When installing them into existing prestressed concrete (pre-or<br />

post-tensioned), locate the prestressed tendons by using a non-destructive method prior to installation. Exercise<br />

extreme care and caution to avoid cutting or damaging the tendons during installation. Maintain a minimum<br />

clearance of 1 inch (25mm) between the reinforcement and the drilled-in anchor.<br />

Table 2 - Maximum Hanger Spacing for Copper Tubing<br />

This Appendix contains bracing tables developed using allowable stress design<br />

(ASD) for the following seismic force values (i.e. “g-values”): .15g (ASD),<br />

.30g (ASD), .45g (ASD), .50g (ASD), .75g (ASD), and 1.0g (ASD). The<br />

building code uses strength design. (See Special Note page 2 for further<br />

information.) These charts cover the vast majority of seismic requirements from<br />

coast to coast, from Zone 1 to Zone 4 applications, and take into account the<br />

many codes which may be referenced for a specific project.<br />

The seismic zone, building type, and other factors determine the level of<br />

seismic force for a particular project. The project design professional should<br />

determine the correct seismic force value using the appropriate building code and<br />

local requirements. Use of the correct table is very important to ensure that the<br />

c o r rect brace spacing and anchorage is provided. See pages 1 - 8 for more<br />

information.<br />

Notes:<br />

1). Many codes require pipe hangers to be spaced every 10’-0” (3.05m) regardless of size. Check<br />

your local codes. Spacing and capacities are based on water filled standard weight pipe. Closer<br />

hanger spacing may be required when additional valves and fittings increase the load. For<br />

electrical conduit support spacing and weight of conduit filled with conductors information,<br />

see B-<strong>Line</strong> Strut Systems Catalog.<br />

2). The “structure connection type” is the brace anchorage requirement. See pages 23 thru 38 for<br />

brace attachment details.<br />

3). The hanger and rod loads indicates the maximum tension in the rod (and hanger) due to gravity<br />

and the additional seismic forces at the braced location. Select a pipe hanger from pages<br />

63 thru 71 that meets the hanger load requirements. Select a rod attachment detail from pages<br />

39 thru 56 that meets the rod load requirements. Be sure to follow the guidelines on page 57 &<br />

58 to see if a rod stiffener is required, due to the length of the rod. Rod stiffeners, if necessary,<br />

are only required at braced locations. Unbraced hangers do not require rod stiffeners.<br />

4). Braces must be attached within 4 inches (101mm) of hanger, see Figure 5, 6 and 8.<br />

5). Table 1 is for steel pipe. Spacing limitations may exist for other types of pipe. See<br />

Note E) on page 9.<br />

6). <strong>Seismic</strong> forces include 1 /3 of horizontal seismic force applied in vertical direction.<br />

7). Consult appropriate plumbing code for non-braced hanger rod sizes.<br />

8). Charts on pages 83 - 86 are for 0.15g (ASD) applications.<br />

Notes:<br />

1). Many codes require pipe hangers to be spaced every 10’-0” (3.05m) regardless of size. Check<br />

your local codes. Spacing and capacities are based on water filled standard weight pipe. Closer<br />

hanger spacing may be required when additional valves and fittings increase the load. For<br />

electrical conduit support spacing and weight of conduit filled with conductors information,<br />

see B-<strong>Line</strong> Strut Systems Catalog.<br />

2). The “structure connection type” is the brace anchorage requirement. See pages 23 thru 38 for<br />

brace attachment details.<br />

3). The hanger and rod loads indicates the maximum tension in the rod (and hanger) due to gravity<br />

and the additional seismic forces at the braced location. Select a pipe hanger from pages<br />

63 thru 71 that meets the hanger load requirements. Select a rod attachment detail from pages<br />

39 thru 56 that meets the rod load requirements. Be sure to follow the guidelines on page 57 &<br />

58 to see if a rod stiffener is required, due to the length of the rod. Rod stiffeners, if necessary,<br />

are only required at braced locations. Unbraced hangers do not require rod stiffeners.<br />

4). Braces must be attached within 4 inches (101mm) of hanger, see Figure 5, 6 and 8.<br />

5). Table 1 is for steel pipe. Spacing limitations may exist for other types of pipe. See<br />

Note E) on page 9.<br />

6). <strong>Seismic</strong> forces include 1 /3 of horizontal seismic force applied in vertical direction.<br />

7). Consult appropriate plumbing code for non-braced hanger rod sizes.<br />

8). Charts on pages 87 - 90 are for 0.30g (ASD) applications.<br />

Notes:<br />

1). Many codes require pipe hangers to be spaced every 10’-0” (3.05m) regardless of size. Check<br />

your local codes. Spacing and capacities are based on water filled standard weight pipe. Closer<br />

hanger spacing may be required when additional valves and fittings increase the load. For<br />

electrical conduit support spacing and weight of conduit filled with conductors information,<br />

see B-<strong>Line</strong> Strut Systems Catalog.<br />

2). The “structure connection type” is the brace anchorage requirement. See pages 23 thru 38 for<br />

brace attachment details.<br />

3). The hanger and rod loads indicates the maximum tension in the rod (and hanger) due to gravity<br />

and the additional seismic forces at the braced location. Select a pipe hanger from pages<br />

63 thru 71 that meets the hanger load requirements. Select a rod attachment detail from pages<br />

39 thru 56 that meets the rod load requirements. Be sure to follow the guidelines on page 57 &<br />

58 to see if a rod stiffener is required, due to the length of the rod. Rod stiffeners, if necessary,<br />

are only required at braced locations. Unbraced hangers do not require rod stiffeners.<br />

4). Braces must be attached within 4 inches (101mm) of hanger, see Figure 5, 6 and 8.<br />

5). Table 1 is for steel pipe. Spacing limitations may exist for other types of pipe. See<br />

Note E) on page 9.<br />

6). <strong>Seismic</strong> forces include 1 /3 of horizontal seismic force applied in vertical direction.<br />

7). Consult appropriate plumbing code for non-braced hanger rod sizes.<br />

8). Charts on pages 91 - 94 are for 0.45g (ASD) applications.<br />

Notes:<br />

1). Many codes require pipe hangers to be spaced every 10’-0” (3.05m) regardless of size. Check<br />

your local codes. Spacing and capacities are based on water filled standard weight pipe. Closer<br />

hanger spacing may be required when additional valves and fittings increase the load. For<br />

electrical conduit support spacing and weight of conduit filled with conductors information,<br />

see B-<strong>Line</strong> Strut Systems Catalog.<br />

2). The “structure connection type” is the brace anchorage requirement. See pages 23 thru 38 for<br />

brace attachment details.<br />

3). The hanger and rod loads indicates the maximum tension in the rod (and hanger) due to gravity<br />

and the additional seismic forces at the braced location. Select a pipe hanger from pages<br />

63 thru 71 that meets the hanger load requirements. Select a rod attachment detail from pages<br />

39 thru 56 that meets the rod load requirements. Be sure to follow the guidelines on page 57 &<br />

58 to see if a rod stiffener is required, due to the length of the rod. Rod stiffeners, if necessary,<br />

are only required at braced locations. Unbraced hangers do not require rod stiffeners.<br />

4). Braces must be attached within 4 inches (101mm) of hanger, see Figure 5, 6 and 8.<br />

5). Table 1 is for steel pipe. Spacing limitations may exist for other types of pipe. See<br />

Note E) on page 9.<br />

6). <strong>Seismic</strong> forces include 1 /3 of horizontal seismic force applied in vertical direction.<br />

7). Consult appropriate plumbing code for non-braced hanger rod sizes.<br />

8). Charts on pages 95 - 98 are for 0.50g (ASD) applications.<br />

Notes:<br />

1). Many codes require pipe hangers to be spaced every 10’-0” (3.05m) regardless of size. Check<br />

your local codes. Spacing and capacities are based on water filled standard weight pipe. Closer<br />

hanger spacing may be required when additional valves and fittings increase the load. For<br />

electrical conduit support spacing and weight of conduit filled with conductors information,<br />

see B-<strong>Line</strong> Strut Systems Catalog.<br />

2). The “structure connection type” is the brace anchorage requirement. See pages 23 thru 38 for<br />

brace attachment details.<br />

3). The hanger and rod loads indicates the maximum tension in the rod (and hanger) due to gravity<br />

and the additional seismic forces at the braced location. Select a pipe hanger from pages<br />

63 thru 71 that meets the hanger load requirements. Select a rod attachment detail from pages<br />

39 thru 56 that meets the rod load requirements. Be sure to follow the guidelines on page 57 &<br />

58 to see if a rod stiffener is required, due to the length of the rod. Rod stiffeners, if necessary,<br />

are only required at braced locations. Unbraced hangers do not require rod stiffeners.<br />

4). Braces must be attached within 4 inches (101mm) of hanger, see Figure 5, 6 and 8.<br />

5). Table 1 is for steel pipe. Spacing limitations may exist for other types of pipe. See<br />

Note E) on page 9.<br />

6). <strong>Seismic</strong> forces include 1 /3 of horizontal seismic force applied in vertical direction.<br />

7). Consult appropriate plumbing code for non-braced hanger rod sizes.<br />

8). Charts on pages 99 - 102 are for 0.75g (ASD) applications.<br />

Notes:<br />

1). Many codes require pipe hangers to be spaced every 10’-0” (3.05m) regardless of size. Check<br />

your local codes. Spacing and capacities are based on water filled standard weight pipe. Closer<br />

hanger spacing may be required when additional valves and fittings increase the load. For<br />

electrical conduit support spacing and weight of conduit filled with conductors information,<br />

see B-<strong>Line</strong> Strut Systems Catalog.<br />

2). The “structure connection type” is the brace anchorage requirement. See pages 23 thru 38 for<br />

brace attachment details.<br />

3). The hanger and rod loads indicates the maximum tension in the rod (and hanger) due to gravity<br />

and the additional seismic forces at the braced location. Select a pipe hanger from pages<br />

63 thru 71 that meets the hanger load requirements. Select a rod attachment detail from pages<br />

39 thru 56 that meets the rod load requirements. Be sure to follow the guidelines on page 57 &<br />

58 to see if a rod stiffener is required, due to the length of the rod. Rod stiffeners, if necessary,<br />

are only required at braced locations. Unbraced hangers do not require rod stiffeners.<br />

4). Braces must be attached within 4 inches (101mm) of hanger, see Figure 5, 6 and 8.<br />

5). Table 1 is for steel pipe. Spacing limitations may exist for other types of pipe. See<br />

Note E) on page 9.<br />

6). <strong>Seismic</strong> forces include 1 /3 of horizontal seismic force applied in vertical direction.<br />

7). Consult appropriate plumbing code for non-braced hanger rod sizes.<br />

8). Charts on pages 103 - 106 are for 1.00g (ASD) applications.<br />

Table 2 - 1 Transverse and 2 Longitudinal Braces at each Location<br />

This Appendix contains bracing tables developed using allowable stress design<br />

(ASD) for the following seismic force values (i.e. “g-values”): .15g (ASD),<br />

.30g (ASD), .45g (ASD), .50g (ASD), .75g (ASD), and 1.0g (ASD). The<br />

building code uses strength design. (See Special Note on page 2 for further<br />

information.) These charts cover the vast majority of seismic requirements from<br />

coast to coast, from Zone 1 to Zone 4 applications, and take into account the<br />

many codes which may be referenced for a specific project.<br />

The seismic zone, building type, and other factors determine the level of<br />

seismic force for a particular project. The project design professional should<br />

determine the correct seismic force value using the appropriate building code and<br />

local requirements. Use of the correct table is very important to ensure that the<br />

correct brace spacing and anchorage is provided. See pages 1 - 8 for more<br />

information.<br />

TRAPEZE BRACING<br />

Footnotes<br />

1. It is not necessary to install both transverse braces and longitudinal braces on the same trapeze support. For<br />

example, it is common to install transverse braces on trapezes every 40 ft., and then install both transverse and<br />

longitudinal braces every 80 ft.<br />

2. The “structure connection type” is the brace anchorage requirement. See pages 23 thru 38 for brace attachment<br />

details.<br />

3. Any combination of brace interval and structure connection type (anchor size) may be used for a given system<br />

weight and support span. For example, it is not necessary to use structure connection type II for both transverse<br />

and longitudinal braces. Often longitudinal braces are spaced at a greater distance, and would require a larger<br />

anchor when attaching to structure.<br />

4. The bracing intervals listed are maximums. They are rounded down to facilitate construction. For example, it is<br />

common to use a longitudinal bracing interval that is twice the transverse spacing.<br />

5. The rod load indicates the maximum tension in the rod due to gravity and 1 /3 of the horizontal seismic force<br />

applied in the vertical direction for “unbraced trapezes”. For trapezes with braces attached, the rod load also<br />

includes additional seismic loads. Note that the rod loads at braced locations are significantly higher than<br />

unbraced trapezes. Select a hanger rod attachment detail from pages 39 thru 56 that meets the load<br />

requirements.<br />

6. The minimum rod size is given for both braced and unbraced trapezes. Due to the additional seismic forces at<br />

braced trapezes, the rod sizes may be significantly larger. Be sure to follow the guidelines on page 57 to see if a<br />

rod stiffener is required, due to the length of the rod. Rod stiffeners, if necessary, are only required at braced<br />

locations. Unbraced trapezes never require rod stiffeners.<br />

7. <strong>Seismic</strong> forces for charts in Appendix 2 (pages 109 - 144) include 1 /3 of horizontal seismic force applied in<br />

vertical direction.<br />

8. Charts in Appendix 2 (pages 109 - 144) are for the seismic force levels (%g) listed on those<br />

pages.<br />

Notes<br />

1. Anchor diameter refers to the thread size for the Wedge & Shell categories and to the anchor outside diameter for the Sleeve category.<br />

2. Apply proof test loads to Wedge & Sleeve anchors without removing the nut if possible. If not, remove nut and install a threaded coupler<br />

to the same tightness as the original nut using a torque wrench and apply load.<br />

3. For Sleeve/Shell internally threaded categories, verify that the anchor is not prevented from withdrawing by a baseplate or other fixtures.<br />

If restraint is found, loosen and shim or remove fixture(s) prior to testing.<br />

4. Reaction loads from test fixtures may be applied close to the anchor being tested, provided the anchor is not restrained from withdrawing<br />

by the fixture(s).<br />

5. Shell type anchors should be tested as follows:<br />

a. Visually inspect 25% for full expansion as evidenced by the location of the expansion plug in the anchor body. Plug location of a fully<br />

expanded anchor should be as recommended by the manufacturer, or, in the absence of such recommendation, as determined on the<br />

job site following the manufacturer’s installation instructions. At least 5% of the anchors shall be proof loaded as indicated in the table<br />

above, but not less than three anchors per day for each different person or crew installing anchors, or;<br />

b. Test 50% of the installed anchors per Section 1925B.3.5.<br />

6. Test equipment (including torque wrenches) is to be calibrated by an approved testing laboratory in accordance with standard recognized<br />

procedures.<br />

7. Torque test values for Shell type anchors can occur on an case-by-case basis when test procedures are submitted and approved by the<br />

enforcement agency.<br />

8. The following criteria apply for the acceptance of installed anchors;<br />

Hydraulic Ram Method: The anchor should have no observable movement at the applicable test load. For wedge and sleeve type<br />

anchors, a practical way to determine observable movement is that the washer under the nut becomes loose.<br />

Torque Wrench Method: The applicable test torque must be reached within the following limits;<br />

Wedge or Sleeve type: One-half ( 1 /2) turn of the nut.<br />

One-quarter ( 1 /4) turn of the nut for 3 /8 inch sleeve anchor only.<br />

9. Testing should occur a minimum of 24 hours after installation of the subject anchors.<br />

10. If the manufacturer’s recommended installation torque is less than the test torque noted in the table, the manufacturer’s recommended<br />

installation torque should be used in lieu of the tabulated values.<br />

11. All tests shall be performed in the presence of the Inspector of Record.<br />

As defined in the 1999 Standard Building Code, Chapter 16, Section 1607.6.4, the seismic horizontal force,<br />

F p , may be calculated using the following formula:<br />

Where,<br />

F p = <strong>Seismic</strong> Force Level<br />

F p = A v C c Pa c W c<br />

A v = Peak velocity-related acceleration (Section 1607.1.5)<br />

C c = <strong>Seismic</strong> coefficient for mechanical, electrical components and systems<br />

(Table 1607.6.4A)<br />

P = Performance criteria factor (Table 1607.6.4A)<br />

a c = Attachment amplification factor (Table 1607.6.4B)<br />

W c = Operating weight of the mechanical, electrical component of system<br />

Example<br />

This example is for a primary cable tray system suspended in a surgical center in Memphis, TN.<br />

F p = A v C c Pa c W c<br />

A v = (0.20) for the Memphis, TN area (Table 1607.1.5A)<br />

C c = (2.0) for a primary cable tray system (Table 1607.6.4A)<br />

P = (1.5) for a primary cable tray system (Table 1607.6.4A)<br />

- Group III for an essential Surgery or Emergency Treatment<br />

Facility (Table 1607.1.6)<br />

a c = Always (1.0) when using a fixed connection type (Table 1607.6.4B)<br />

F p = 0.2(2.0)(1.5)(1.0)W c = .6W c = .6g<br />

To convert F p from a strength design, as just determined from the building code, to an Allowable<br />

Stress Design (ASD) as used in the <strong>Cooper</strong> B-<strong>Line</strong> <strong>Seismic</strong> <strong>Restraints</strong> Manual divide by 1.4.<br />

F p = 0.60g = 0.43g (ASD)<br />

1.4<br />

0.43g is the Allowable Stress Design <strong>Seismic</strong> Load Factor determined from 1999 Standard<br />

Building Code.<br />

1997 Uniform Building Code<br />

As defined in the 1997 Uniform Building Code, Chapter 16, Section 1632, the seismic horizontal force, F p , may<br />

be calculated using the following formula:<br />

F p = a pC a I p<br />

(1 + 3 • hx )W p<br />

R p h r<br />

Except that: F p shall not be less than 0.7 C a I p W p and need not be more than 4 C a I p W p .<br />

Where:<br />

F p = <strong>Seismic</strong> Force Level<br />

a p<br />

= Amplification Factor (Table 16-O)<br />

R p = Component Response Modification Factor (Table 16-O)<br />

= 3.0 for electrical, mechanical and plumbing equipment and associated<br />

conduit, ductwork and piping.<br />

= 1.5 for installations using concrete anchors with an embedment-to-diameter<br />

ratio less than 8.<br />

i.e. a 1 /2" diameter concrete anchor with an embedment of less than 4" inches.<br />

I p<br />

= Importance Factor (Table 16-K)<br />

= 1.5 for Essential facilities such as Hospitals, Fire Stations, Police Stations,<br />

Aviation Control Towers, etc. consult Table 16-K in UBC for a detailed list.<br />

= 1.0 for most other occupancies<br />

C a = <strong>Seismic</strong> Coefficient. This is an accumulation of several factors: (Table 16-Q)<br />

<strong>Seismic</strong> Zone (Table 16-I), Soil Property Type (Table 16-J), and Distance from<br />

known faults. (Table 16-S, and Table 16-U)<br />

h x<br />

= Element or component attachment elevation with respect to grade.<br />

Note: h x shall not be taken less than 0.0<br />

h r<br />

= Structure Roof Elevation with respect to grade.<br />

Example One, Deeply Embedded Anchors:<br />

Cable tray system is suspended on the 1st floor of a 40-foot tall, 2-story surgical center in California.<br />

The cable tray is actually suspended from the bottom of the 2nd floor, which has an elevation of 20<br />

feet above grade. Location of the surgical center is in seismic zone 4 with a rock soil profile.<br />

F p = a pC a I p<br />

(1 + 3 • hx )W p<br />

R p<br />

h r<br />

a p = 1.0 from Table 16-O<br />

C a = .40Na from Table 16A-Q, which is combination of <strong>Seismic</strong> Zone factor and Soil<br />

profile type<br />

Where,<br />

Z = .40 for seismic zone 4 applications (Table 16-I)<br />

Soil Profile Type = S B for rock sediment (Table 16-J)<br />

<strong>Seismic</strong> Source Type = B for faults other than Type A & C (Table 16-U)<br />

Na = 1.0, for 5 km from known seismic source (Table 16-S)<br />

I p<br />

= (1.5) for an essential surgery and emergency treatment area (Table 16-K)<br />

R p = (3.0) for cable trays supported with deep embedded anchors (Table 16-O)<br />

h x = 20 feet, for the elevation of the floor used to support the cable tray<br />

h r<br />

= 40 feet, for the elevation of the structure roof<br />

Check if value falls within limits:<br />

F p = (1.0)((0.40(1.0))(1.5) (1 + 3 • 20 )W p = 0.50W p = 0.50g<br />

3.0 40<br />

F p shall not be taken less than, 0.7C a I p W p = 0.7(.40)(1.5)W p = .42g<br />

F p shall not be greater than, 4.0C a I p W p = 4.0(.40)(1.5)W p = 2.4g<br />

2.4g > .5 > 0.42g Therefore allowing the use of 0.50g<br />

To convert this F p from a strength design, as just determined from the building code, to an<br />

Allowable Stress Design (ASD) used in the <strong>Cooper</strong> B-<strong>Line</strong> <strong>Seismic</strong> <strong>Restraints</strong> Manual divide by 1.4.<br />

F p = 0.50g = 0.36g (ASD)<br />

1.4<br />

0.36g is the Allowable Stress Design <strong>Seismic</strong> Load Factor determined from 1997 Uniform<br />

Building Code.<br />

Special Note: Installations using concrete anchors installed with an embedment length-to-diameter<br />

ratio of less than 8, also referred as shallow embedment anchors, have an adjusted Component<br />

Response Factor being R p = 1.5.<br />

Example Two, Shallow Embedded Anchors:<br />

In this example a cable tray system is suspended on the 1st floor of a 40-foot tall, 2-story surgical<br />

center in California. The cable tray is actually suspended from the 2nd floor, which has an elevation<br />

of 20 feet above grade. Location of the surgical center is in seismic zone 4 with a rock soil<br />

profile, however shallow embedment anchors (length-to-diameter ratio of less than 8) are used at<br />

brace locations.<br />

F p = a pC a I p<br />

(1 + 3 hx • )W p<br />

R p h r<br />

a p = 1.0 from Table 16-O<br />

C a = (.40Na) which is combination of seismic zone factor and soil profile type<br />

from (Table 16-Q)<br />

Where,<br />

Z = .40 for seismic zone 4 applications (Table 16-I)<br />

Soil Profile type = S B for rock sediment (Table 16-J)<br />

<strong>Seismic</strong> Source Type = B for faults other than Type A & C (Table 16-U)<br />

Near Source Factor = 1.0 for 5 km from known seismic source (Table 16-S)<br />

I p<br />

= (1.5) for an essential surgery and emergency treatment areas (Table 16-K)<br />

R p = (1.5) for cable trays supported with shallow embedded anchors (Table 16-O)<br />

h x<br />

h r<br />

= 20 feet, for the elevation of the floor used to support the cable tray<br />

= 40 feet. for the elevation of the structure roof<br />

F p = (1.0)((0.40(1.0))(1.5) (1 + 3 • 20 )W p = 1.0W p = 1.0g<br />

1.5 40<br />

Check if value falls within limits:<br />

F p shall not be taken less than, 0.7C a I p W p = 0.7(.40)(1.5)W p = .42g<br />

F p shall not be greater than, 4.0C a I p W p = 4.0(.40)(1.5)W p = 2.4g<br />

2.4g > 1.0g > 0.42g Therefore allowing the use of 1.0g<br />

To convert this F p from a strength design, as just determined from the building code, to an<br />

Allowable Stress Design (ASD) used in the <strong>Cooper</strong> B-<strong>Line</strong> <strong>Seismic</strong> <strong>Restraints</strong> Manual divide by 1.4.<br />

F p = 1.0g = 0.71g (ASD)<br />

1.4<br />

0.71g is the Allowable Stress Design <strong>Seismic</strong> Load Factor determined from 1997 Uniform<br />

Building Code for shallow embedment anchors.<br />

1999 BOCA (Building Officials and Code Administrators)<br />

As defined in the 1999 BOCA, Chapter 16, Section 1610.6.4, the seismic horizontal force, F p , may be calculated<br />

using the following formula:<br />

Where,<br />

F p = <strong>Seismic</strong> Force Level<br />

F p = A v C c Pa c W c<br />

A v = Peak velocity-related acceleration (Section 1610.1.3)<br />

C c = <strong>Seismic</strong> coefficient for mechanical, electrical components and systems<br />

(Table 1610.6.4(1))<br />

P = Performance criteria factor (Table 1610.6.4(1))<br />

a c = Attachment amplification factor (Table 1610.6.4(2))<br />

W c = Operating weight of the mechanical, electrical component of system<br />

Example<br />

This example is for a primary cable tray system suspended in a surgical center in St. Louis, MO.<br />

F p = A v C c Pa c W c<br />

A v = (0.15) for the St. Louis, MO area (Figure 1610.1.3(1))<br />

C c = (2.0) for a primary cable tray system (Table 1610.6.4(1))<br />

P = (1.5) for a primary cable tray system (Table 1610.6.4(1))<br />

- Group III for an essential Surgery or Emergency Treatment<br />

Facility (Table 1610.1.6)<br />

a c = Always (1.0) when using a fixed connection type (Table 1610.6.4(2))<br />

F p = 0.15(2.0)(1.5)(1.0)W c = .45W c = .45g<br />

To convert F p from a strength design, as just determined from the building code, to an Allowable<br />

Stress Design (ASD) as used in the <strong>Cooper</strong> B-<strong>Line</strong> <strong>Seismic</strong> <strong>Restraints</strong> Manual divide by 1.4.<br />

F p = 0.45g = 0.32g (ASD)<br />

1.4<br />

0.32g is the Allowable Stress Design <strong>Seismic</strong> Load Factor determined from the 1999 BOCA.<br />
