Seismic qualification of turbine building

Description

A Turbine building structure, located very close to nuclear safety related structure, is qualified for SSE. Seismic design criteria is developed using Newmark inelastic design response spectra technique. Base shears and strain energies for first mode and for total of 100 modes are compared to ascertain pseudo-SDOF behaviour. Ductility factor and ductile detailing measures are discussed. (author)
