3.2 Seismic load

Seismic force as per UBC 1997 vol 2, section 1632-lateral seismic force for non structural
components and equipments supported by structures.
3.2.1 coefficients
Component amplification factor, Ap
Ap=…….. 1 as per table 16-O, for category 3B
Component response modification factor, Rp

Rp=…….. 3 as per table 16-O, for category 3B
Seismic importance factor, Ip

Ip=……… 1 as per table 16-K, for category 3
Seismic coefficient, Ca
Ca=…….. 0.19 as per table 16-Q, assuming soft soil (Se), and alternative for zone 1,
since for zone 0, coefficient is 0, so total seismic force will be zero.
3.2.2 TOTAL SEISMIC LATERAL FORCE

Fp=(((Ap*Ca*Ip)/Rp)*(1+3(Hx/Hr))) * Gs=….……………………………… 3.4916901 kN
Total force... E= 3.4916901 kN
3.3 Live load

4. THE CHECK OF THE FRICTION BETWEEN PIPE CLAMPS AND DI PIPE

Friction ratio between steel and ductile iron….…..……………………… 0.3
Tension capacity of the bolts…..………………………………………….. 8.8 GR
ptcap=….. 560 N/mm2
D bolt=….. 28 mm
Ptcap=…. 275717 N………… 276 kN
The clamp will be tighten to the 80% of full bolt tension capacity force.
Tb=……… 220.574 kN
The pressure on the pipe by steel clamp, Pp:
width=….. 628 mm
length=…. 400 mm
Pp=Tb/L*b
Pp=…….. 0.00088 kN/mm2
Pp=………. 0.35123 kN/mm
The friction force Ff= 0.1053696 kN/mm

The slip force due to dead load………………………………………… 0.0190594 kN/mm
The slip force due to live load………………………………………….. 0.045 kN/mm
The factored combined slip force: 1.4*G + 1.6*Fw………………….. 0.0986831 kN/mm
Combined slip force=…………….. 0.098683 < 0.10537 kN/mm-friction force………… safe
Note: The additional safety against pipe slippery will be provided by the support location,
which is very close to the pipe joint extension so the pipe will rest on the clamp (bracket) as per
figure bellow, and the joint extension will be used as stoper against slippery.

5. THE LOAD DISTRIBUTION ON THE CLAMP/STEEL BRACKET LOCATION

Forces are:
5.1 dead load:
vertical force…………….. 14.7953 kN
bending moment………… 4.438589 kNm
5.2 live load:
vertical force…………….. 28.26 kN
5.3 seismic load horizontal perpendicular / longitudinall
horizontal force………….. 3.49169 kN
The seismic bending moment is due to seismic force eccentricity, since the seismic force
is acting in the pipe center of gravity (C1) as per figure 1.
6. THE CHECK OF THE STEEL BRACKET

Is calculated in softwear STAAD PRO 2006 and input/output files are shown on following
pages.
The deisgn criteria AISC ASD included, and the bracket is checked on the torsion stress.
7.0 THE CHECK OF THE ANCHORING SYSTEM
The adopted is post drilled HILTI anchored system using galvanized HILTI bolts prior to
water's environment.
The calculations are based on maximum reaction forces assuming all types of loads:
dead load:
live load,
seismic load horizontal perpendicular,
seismic load horizontal longitudinal 1, and
seismic load horizontal longitudinal 2.
