Abstract

ABS Consulting, Inc. has developed a new comprehensive building database to enhance the fidelity of the screening level facility siting study. The building database includes 113 potential industrial building configurations, which are classified according to their structural frame, wall and roof systems. Building damage levels are determined based on the predicted damage levels of the primary and secondary components. A single-degree-of-freedom structural dynamics program (SBEDS) was used to develop the component damage level curves. The result is amore comprehensive building type database.
