1 EARTHQUAKE ASHRAE PROTECTION The following details can be used to help prevent the effects of earthquakes on: Mechanical Systems Electrical Systems Piping Cable Trays, Ductwork Bus Ducts Suspended Equipment Conduit Floor Mounted Equipment Plumbing Systems Piping Fire Protection Systems Piping S A H E R A American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers, Inc. 1
2 Suspended systems such as piping, equipment and ductwork need seismic braces to keep them from swaying during an earthquake. Seismic braces can be flexible using aircraft quality cables, or rigid (solid) using steel sections such as pipe, angles, or strut channels. Braces are typically installed ft (10-13 m) apart, at system turns and at the end of runs. Braces are attached to the pipe/duct at horizontal supports such as clevis s or trapezes. The other end is attached to structure such as overhead concrete slabs or structural steel. Suspended equipment requires a minimum of four braces, one at each corner. Floor mounted equipment needs to be anchored to the structural slab. This also includes equipment that is Vibration Isolated with seismic snubbers.

5 Suspended Equipment Bracing Suspended equipment requires bracing as shown in Figure 8 using rigid steel sections or Figure 7 using cables. Connections to the equipment such as piping, conduit or ductwork should be made with flexible connections.

6 Floor Supported Equipment Floor mounted equipment may be bolted down if no vibration isolation is required. If the equipment is isolated then the equipment must either have bumpers as shown in Figure 9 or snubbers as shown in Figure 10.

7 Anchor Bolts Anchor bolts are one of the most important parts of a correctly designed and installed Seismic Restraint System. The most widely used anchors for seismic restaints are the wedge, adhesive and undercut. Proper installation of anchors is important. Basic installation methods for shell and adhesive anchors is shown in Figure 12. FIGURE 11 FIGURE 12 7
