seismic zone factor（Z）为UBC（Uniform Building Code）标准中的概念，seismic zone 分为1、2A、2B、3、4，对应的Z分别为0.075、0.15、0.20、0.30、0.40
This study intends to design religious building against earthquake.The type of building is steel structure for religious building, which is composed of octagonal shape and is situated in zone 2A. Its height is 109 ft above ground level. The building is composed of intermediate moment - resisting...
Seismic Certifications: » UBC Zone 1, 2a, 2b, 3, 4 at ground level » IEEE 693 Moderate Compliant, IEEE 693 High Available » IBC 2012 certified » IBC SDS of 1.6 at ground level » IBC SDS of 1.0 at top of building Certified through tri-axle shake testing to meet IBC for...
The seismic zone considered in this study is zone 1 and the shape of spectrum is type 1 as per Egyptian zoning system with design ground acceleration, ag of 0.1 g associated with the code reference probability of exceedance of 10% in 50 yrs as shown in Figure 1. The two models ...
Both Puerto Rico to the west and the Leeward Islands to the south and southeast are classified as UBC Zone 3. The International Building Code (IBC) 2000 also shows a greater seismic hazard for the U. S. Virgin Islands than for Puerto Rico. The seismicity pattern for the region surrounding...
According to the UBC 1997, the measured base shear strength for seismic zones 1, 2A, and 2B was greater than the design base shear force. In addition, the seismic performance of reinforced concrete frame was assessed using the capacity spectrum method. Değer et al. [20] opted to ...
UBC (1997) defines five different seismic zones as 1, 2A, 2B, 3, and 4, and a seismic zone factor is attached to each zone. Figure 2 provides a seismic zone map of the United States as the code. In this map, the strict boundaries of the zones appear according to the crisp logic ...
They were considered within Zone 2A (PGA value equals to 0.15 g) Appl. Sci. 2020, 10, 7901 7 of 29 defined by the UBC [48]. In contrast to the UBC [48] format, that uses the PGA values as a direct input for the seismic design criteria, the Abu Dhabi municipality has recently ...
However, the weight of these boundary constraints accounts for 82% of the total weight (a)of tShtieffdeanmerper (see Figure 2a). Therefore, it is necessary to optimize the lightweight design of the boundary constraints first. The LYSPD becomes brittle in the heat-affected zone [28] owing ...
