Recorded Webinar
This webinar focuses on code requirements for the seismic protection of nonstructural components. The webinar will clarify what is and what is not regulated by code, and will provide a comprehensive understanding of the code requirements. Real world examples will be used to examine the requirements and common misapplications will be highlighted. Topics will include designing for force and drift requirements, complying with special seismic certification and the unique challenges associated with seismic protection of distributed systems such as piping, ductwork and conduit. Various approaches for achieving code compliance will also be discussed, including custom design by the SEOR, the specification of standards, and the use of performance specifications for design-build by others.
Speakers
Maryann Phipps, S.E., has over 30 years of experience evaluating, designing and renovating hospitals, research laboratories and essential service facilities to remain operational after earthquakes. Her hands-on experience designing facilities for post-earthquake functionality has helped make Maryann a recognized expert in the seismic protection of nonstructural components. She was the lead technical consultant for FEMA P-74 Reducing the Risks of Nonstructural Earthquake Damage, which received a 2012 Award of Excellence from the Structural Engineers Association of California. She is a regular speaker on the subject of seismic protection of nonstructural components and has recently presented national webinars on behalf of FEMA. She is a past President and Fellow of the Structural Engineers Association of California. Maryann is President of her own firm, Estructure, which serves select clients in regions of high seismicity.
