INTRODUCTION

What is Seismic Bracing?Seismic forces are exerted on a building and its contents during an earthquake. These forces acthorizontally upon the structure itself, as well as the piping, cable trays, ductwork, and other buildingsystems within. Typical supports for piping, trays, and other equipment are designed for the gravity,or vertical, loads but do not take into account the horizontal loading caused by earthquakes. Seismicrestraints (i.e. braces) resist the horizontal forces and keep the systems in place and secure. The mainpurpose of seismic bracing is safety- to minimize the loss of life due to an earthquake.

Seismic Bracing RequirementsThe rules and requirements for the seismic restraints are published in the model building codes: TheUniform Building Code (International Conference of Building Officials), National Building Code(Building Officials and Code Administrators) and the Standard Building Code (Southern Building CodeCongress International). Each code is similar in nature, and has a chapter on structural forces whichdefines the level of seismic force must be used in the design of seismic restraints.

The amount of seismic force (as determined by the building code) is given as a percent of thecomponents’ weight, or g-force. If the horizontal force is determined to be 50 percent of the pipingweight, for example, the seismic force is .5g.

The seismic "g-value" can vary greatly depending on the nature of the project. Critical buildings in ahigh seismic zone have larger g-value requirements than warehouses in zone 1. Factors that govern the seismic g-values used for design:

• Seismic Zone • Soil Type• Building Type • Distance from known faults• Elevation within building • Anchorage Type• System being braced

The design professional should use these factors and the applicable building code requirements todetermine the proper g-values to be used for the project.

While this manual has been developed under the requirements of the 2001 California Building Code,this manual may also be used under other building codes as the California Building Code requires morestringent seismic design criteria.

This brochure contains seismic bracing details that can be used for seismic bracing projects upto 1.0g (ASD) or 1.4g. The brace spacing charts, required details, and rod loads must be determinedfor the specific g-value for the project and shall be submitted to the engineer of record prior toconstruction. The determination of the seismic force level shall also be submitted to the engineer ofrecord and to OSHPD for hospital projects in the state of California prior to construction. However,the seismic force level need not be submitted to the engineer of record or OSHPD if included in theoriginal construction documents. This brochure contains charts for a variety of g values, howevercustom charts can be created to reflect different g-values as required for the project. Contact B-LineEngineering at 618-654-2184 with your requirements.

A copy of the complete Seismic Restraints Manual shall be on the jobsite for the duration of theproject.

B-LINE SEISMIC RESTRAINT SYSTEMS are designed to resist seismic loading while minimizinginstallation time and providing superior performance. On the following pages, several methods of seismicbracing are illustrated. The choice of brace design should be governed by the system requirements and locationof supports.

Actual applications may vary and are not strictly limited to the combinations of fittings and supports shown.Any changes to the depicted designs should be in accordance with standard engineering practices and beapproved by OSHPD (California Office of Statewide Health Planning & Development) if necessary.

For additional information on hangers, channels, fittings, and hardware shown, see the latest B-Line StrutSystems Catalog or Pipe Hangers and Supports Catalog.

Seismic restraints are designed to resist the horizontal seismic force in two primary directions: Transverse(perpendicular) and Longitudinal (parallel) to the run. The braces are attached to the building with a structureattachment (for concrete, steel, wood, etc.) of various anchor sizes. Typically, the stronger the structureattachment, the greater the brace spacing allowed.

The following steps detail how to use the brochure:Step 1: Select the bracing details for single pipe hangers or trapeze supports.

Step 2: Obtain required force level (%g) from applicable code for local jurisdiction or from the structural engineer of record.

Example: 2001 California Building CodeAs defined in the 2001 California Building Code, Chapter 16A, Section 1632A, the seismic horizontalforce, Fp, may be calculated using the following formula:

Except that: Fp shall not be less than 0.7 Ca Ip Wp and need not be more than 4 Ca Ip Wp.

Where:

Fp = Seismic Force Level

ap = Amplification Factor (Table 16A-O)

Rp = Component Response Modification Factor (Table 16A-O)= 3.0 for electrical, mechanical and plumbing equipment and associated

conduit, ductwork and piping utilizing deeply embedded anchors. (Table 16A-O)= 1.5 for installations using concrete anchors with an embedment-to-diameter

ratio less than 8.i.e. a 1/2" diameter concrete anchor with an embedment of less than 4" inches.

Special Note: This manual is based on allowable stress design (ASD), where as the seismic force level(%g or Fp) for non-structural components provided in building codes are based on strength design. Foruse in this manual, the seismic force level (Fp) from the building code are converted to allowable stressdesign by dividing the result by 1.4.

Example: If the building code yields, (Fp) = 1.4g, this value is converted to allowable stress design (ASD)as used in this catalog as follows: Fp=1.4g/1.4=1.0 g

Step 3: With required force level (%g), obtain the transverse and longitudinal brace spacing from Appendix 1 (single pipe) or Appendix 2 (trapeze hanger). The following notes shall be followed:

a) Break the length of pipe into separate straight runs, which are considered to be a single straightsection between any bends in the pipe except where the bend is at an offset of less than themaximum offset length as defined below.

Note: The tabulated values represent pipe and tubing with moment and shear transfering joints.Therefore, for use of these tables pipes shall have welded, brazed, or UL Listed grooved joints. Pipe andtube sizes not listed above or joined as reqiuired shall be limited to a maximum offset length of 2 ft.

b) Brace each straight run in the transverse direction at both ends. Where several short runs occur,see note e) on the following page.

c) Check the required spacing for transverse bracing (Appendixes 1 & 2) and compare it to thelength of the straight run. If the length of the straight run is greater than the allowable distancefor transverse bracing add transverse braces until the spacing does not exceed the allowabletransverse brace distance.

d) Each straight run must have at least one longitudinal brace. Add longitudinal braces so that thespacing does not exceed the allowable longitudinal brace spacing in Appendixes 1 & 2.

Note: A transverse brace may dually act as a longitudinal brace for an adjacent run when it islocated within 24” of the adjacent straight run. However, Appendixes 1 & 2 shall be reviewed touse the stronger of the longitudinal or transverse brace requirements, i.e. anchor and othercomponent sizes.

e) In many cases, several short runs occur one after the other. Based on previous requirements,each straight run requires a longitudinal brace when the adjacent short runs exceed the maximumoffset length (ft.). When the adjacent short runs do not exceed the maximum offset length (ft.) thelongitudinal braces can act as transverse braces as long as the allowable transverse brace spacing(Appendixes 1 & 2) is not exceeded.

In the following layout, transverse braces are used as longitudinal braces when the straight runsare less than the maximum offset length (ft.). When a straight run exceeds the maximum offsetlength (ft.) additional braces are required.

GENERAL NOTES FOR SEISMIC BRACING

A) The seismic restraint assemblies shown in this pre-approval document are designed to resistvertical loading simultaneously with seismic loading (transverse & longitudinal loading). Designrecommendations shown are for single standard weight steel pipes filled with water. Contentsother than water shall be evaluated by the user. Pipes of other approved materials shall besupported in accordance with their approved installation standards. Details not shown in thispre-approval shall be submitted to OSHPD for approval before installation if necessary.

B) This bracing system is limited to the pipe sizes and support details shown. Specialconsideration must be given for pipe material and connections, insulation, thermal movement,vibration, and building seismic joints.

C) Transverse and longitudinal braces shall be no more than 45° above or below the centerline ofthe pipe, duct, or tray.

D) All channel and pipe clamp nuts and bolts shall be tightened to the following torques:1/4"-20 to 6 ft.-lbs. (8 N•m)3/8"-16 to 19 ft.-lbs. (26 N•m)1/2"-13 to 50 ft.-lbs. (68 N•m)5/8"-11 to 65 ft.-lbs. (88 N•m)3/4"-10 to 75 ft.-lbs. (101 N•m)

E) The transverse and longitudinal bracing spacing listed in Appendix 1 & 2 is based on ductilepiping (steel, copper, etc.) with ductile connections (welded, brazed, etc.) and has the followinglimitations:

1) Transverse bracing shall not exceed 40’-0” (12.2 m). Longitudinal bracing shall not exceed 80’-0” (24.4 m).

2) Fuel piping shall have transverse bracing 20'-0" (6.1 m) o.c. maximum and longitudinal bracing 40'-0" (12.2 m) o.c. maximum.

3) Non-ductile piping, and piping with non-ductile connections shall have transversebracing 20'-0" (6.1 m) o.c. maximum and longitudinal bracing 40'-0" (12.2 m) o.c. maximum or 1/2 of the calculated brace spacing indicated in Appendix 1 or 2, whichever is more restrictive.

F) Transverse bracing for one pipe section may also act as longitudinal bracing for the pipesection connected to it, if the bracing is installed within 24 inches (609 mm) of the elbow or teeof similar size. Figures 2 and 4 do not serve as adequate longitudinal braces.

G) Branch lines of a smaller diameter shall not be used to brace main lines.

H) Where rod stiffeners are required a minimum of two hanger rod stiffener assemblies shall beinstalled. (Part number SC-228 or SC-UB)

I) It is important to check anchorage details against the applicable building code requirements.Seismic design forces may increase substantially when anchors are considered “shallow”(embedded less than 8 times the anchor diameter).

J) When bracing trapeze type hangers, the bracing shall be attached directly to the trapeze hangerassembly and piping secured to the trapeze assembly with pipe straps.

K) A rigid piping system shall not be braced to different parts of a building that may responddifferently during an earthquake. Example: Solid concrete wall and a roof (metal deck filled withlightweight concrete). Special care should be taken to avoid bracing rigid pipe on both sides ofa building seismic joint without allowing for pipe and building movement.

L) The pre-approval document is based on British Units (Inches & Pounds) and values noted inparenthesis (Metric or S.I. Units) are equivalent values. In case of conflicts, British Units will bethe standards for evaluating the proper application of pre-approvals.

M) The designer of the structure shall determine the adequacy of the support structure to carry theload of the piping and equipment. Engineer of record for a site specific project shall verify thatthe structure can support the connection loads of the hanger rod and the bracing attachments.This pre-approval document is not intended for the seismic design of the piping itself. Thedynamic properties of the building structure and piping should be considered when selectingthe type of piping to be installed.

N) Seismic bracing shall not limit the expansion and contraction of the piping system. Alwaysconsider thermal movements when selecting brace locations and materials. The design forthermal movements is beyond the scope of OSHPD pre-approval.

P) No portion of this pre-approval shall be taken out of context and used in other systems,design or purpose.

Q) On transverse bracing, the pipe insulation material may be part of the brace assembly (i.e) inthe load path. In this case the insulating material shall be capable of withstanding the lateralforces without damage and shall include a pipe shield for hangers or a pipe saddle for rollers.For longitudinal bracing, clamping must be applied directly to the pipe with any insulationbeing installed directly over the hanger and brace assembly. In these applications themechanical engineer of record shall be contacted for insulating recommendations.

Commentary:

Appendix 1 & 2 list the allowable structure connection type (I, II, III, IV, or V) for each brace spacing listed. Thestructure connection type limits the amount of axial load (in tension or compression) which is applied to thebrace member. The axial load is listed for each structure connection detail on pages 23 - 38, and is as follows:

TRAPEZE BRACING

Trapeze Assembly Bracing

1). Layout piping and/or conduit runs and determine number, size and location of items to be supported bythe trapeze

2). Determine trapeze support spacing (LT). This is usually determined by the maximum support spacing ofthe smallest pipe or conduit on the trapeze.

3). Select trapeze supports.

a). Determine the total vertical load (TL) for each trapeze.

TL = LT x WT

TL = Total vertical load for each trapeze support (lbs.)

LT = Trapeze support spacing (ft.)

WT = Weight of all piping, cable tray, ductwork, conduit, etc. in lbs./ft. supported by the trapeze

b). Determine length of trapeze, making sure sufficient length is added to attach the all threaded rod and bracing attachments. All channel nuts shall be fully engaged within strut.(13/16” (20mm) minimum distance from edge of strut to center line of bolt.)

c). Select type of trapeze member (B22, B22AMIG, etc.) by selecting a member with loading greater than the total load (TL). See Table 4 on page 22 for strut loading data, noting that the trapeze beam span is the distance between the hanger rods. Also determine whether the applied load is uniform or concentrated, and follow notes on page 22 accordingly. Variations in pipe sizes (simular to concentratedload assembly on page 22) shall be treated as a concentrated load, where as same sized pipes evenly distributed across the span (similar to uniform load assembly on page 22) may be treated as a uniform load. Uniform loads on page 22 are converted to a concentrated load by a 50% reduction. Do not exceed the beam span length given by Table 4A on page 22, which limits overloading due to longitudinal seismic force.

d). Determine hanger rod size from Appendix 2 based on total weight (WT) and trapeze support spacing (LT). Rod sizes are given for trapeze supports with braces attached and unbraced trapezes.

e). Select a hanger rod connection to structure (pages 39 thru 56) that is greater than the hanger rod loads listed in Appendix 2.

4). Select transverse and longitudinal bracing.

a). Select bracing detail from Figures 9 - 11.

b). Determine spacing of transverse / longitudinal bracing from Appendix 2 based on total weight (Wt) and the trapeze support span (Lt). Note the corresponding structure attachment type (Roman numeral I - V) for each possible brace interval. When supporting multiple pipe sizes, do not exceed the maximum spacing for the smallest pipe as given in Appendix 1. Verify that the specific forces do not exceed the capacity of the pipe clamps on pages 70 & 71.

c). Determine if rod stiffener is required (pages 57 & 58).

d). Engineer of record for a site specific project shall verify that the structure can support the connection loads.

5). Review the design and revise layout where loads exceed the limitations of the hanger rods, strut trapeze supports, or connection details.

2). B335-2 adjustable hinges for transverse braces may be attached to the all thread rod.

3). Two B335-2 adjustable hinges may be attached to the strut trapeze using the same boltor all thread rod.

4). It is not necessary to install both transverse braces and longitudinal braces on the same trapeze support. Either set of braces may be removed to form a longitudinal brace only or a transversebrace only if desired.

5). Longitudinal braces, when needed, must be installed at both ends of trapeze.

6). The equipment shown on this trapeze support is generic in nature. Any number of pipes, conduits, ductwork or cable tray may be supported following the system weight and support spans listed in Appendix 2 - Table 1.

7). Torque all nuts per Note D, page 9.

8). Refer to note Q, page 10 for installations requiring insulated pipe.

Brace Structural Attachment Selection Procedure1) Determine structure to be attached to from the following:

A) ConcreteB) Wood BeamC) Structural Steel

2) Reference structure connection type from Appendix 1 & 2.

3) Choose appropriate structural detail that meets structure connection type. (I, II, III, IV or V) pages 24thru 38.

4) Determine anchor size. On concrete structure attachments, calculate minimum embedment and minimumdistance between anchors.

General Notes For Concrete Attachments1) The “minimum embedment” values given on pages 24 - 30 provide the anchor capacity to reach the

design loads shown, but may be considered by the 1997 UBC to be “shallow” anchors (embedment lessthat 8 times the anchor diameter). Using “shallow” anchors may increase the design seismic force,depending on the building code used. As an alternative, consider using the following values to avoid“shallow anchor” issues:

Anchor Bolt Dia.“8x” Embedment3/8” 3” (76mm)1/2” 4” (101mm)5/8” 5” (127mm)3/4” 6” (152mm)

2) Size and number of expansion anchors is based on "without special inspection" values given in ICBO(International Conference of Building Officials) Report No. 4627 dated February 1, 2001, Hilti Kwik Bolt- II Carbon Steel Allowable Tension and Shear Values.

3) Other anchors may be used providing they are listed in an ICBO ES Evaluation Report, which was testedin accordance with AC01, including the seismic qualification tests of AC01 Section 5.6. These valuesmust meet or exceed the values provided in ICBO Report No. 4627, and must be approved by thestructural engineer of record. OSHPD change order is required for California hospitals.

4) For California Essential Facilities, 50% of the expansion type anchor (alternate anchors in a group) shallbe proof tested per Appendix 3. Other projects may have similar requirements, check local codes andordinances.

5) Cast in place concrete anchors require special inspection as indicated in the building code for the localjurisdiction.

6) When slab thickness is less than the minimum allowable, but in excess of the minimum anchorembedment, a thru bolt approach may be used if approved by the site engineer.

7) When installing drill-in anchors in existing non-prestressed reinforced concrete, use care and caution toavoid cutting or damaging the existing reinforcing bars. When installing them into existing prestressedconcrete (pre-or post-tensioned), locate the prestressed tendons by using a non-destructive method priorto installation. Exercise extreme care and caution to avoid cutting or damaging the tendons duringinstallation. Maintain a minimum clearance of 1 inch (25mm) between the reinforcement and the drilled-inanchor.

HANGER ROD ATTACHMENTS

Hanger Rod Structure Attachments

Selection Procedure

1) Determine structure type to attach hanger rodA) ConcreteB) Wood BeamC) Structural Steel

2) Reference rod size and hanger rod load from Appendix 1 & 2.

3) Select a hanger rod attachment detail with a load capacity that meets the hanger rod load

General Notes For Concrete Attachments1) The “minimum embedment” values given on pages 40 - 43 provide the anchor capacity to reach the design loads

shown, but may be considered by the 1997 UBC to be “shallow” anchors (embedment less that 8 times the anchordiameter). Using “shallow” anchors may increase the design seismic force, depending on the building code used.As an alternative, consider using the following values to avoid “shallow anchor” issues:

Anchor Bolt Dia. “8x” Embedment3/8” 3” (76mm)1/2” 4” (101mm)5/8” 5” (127mm)3/4” 6” (152mm)

2) Size and number of expansion anchors is based on "without special inspection" values given in ICBO (InternationalConference of Building Officials) Report No. 4627 dated February 1, 2001, Hilti Kwik Bolt - II Carbon SteelAllowable Tension and Shear Values.

3) Other anchors may be used providing they are listed in an ICBO ES Evaluation Report, which was tested inaccordance with AC01, including the seismic qualification tests of AC01 Section 5.6. These values must meet orexceed the values provided in ICBO Report No. 4627, and are approved by the structural engineer of record.OSHPD change order is required for California hospitals.

4) For California hospitals and schools, 50% of the expansion type anchor (alternate anchors in a group) shall beproof tested per Appendix 3. Other projects may have similar requirements, check local codes and ordinances.

5) Cast in place concrete anchors require special inspection as indicated in the building code for the localjurisdiction.

6) When slab thickness is less than the minimum allowable, but in excess of the minimum anchor embedment, a thrubolt approach may be used if approved by the site engineer.

7) When installing drill-in anchors in existing non-prestressed reinforced concrete, use care and caution to avoidcutting or damaging the existing reinforcing bars. When installing them into existing prestressed concrete (pre-orpost-tensioned), locate the prestressed tendons by using a non-destructive method prior to installation. Exerciseextreme care and caution to avoid cutting or damaging the tendons during installation. Maintain a minimumclearance of 1 inch (25mm) between the reinforcement and the drilled-in anchor.

Table 1 - Maximum Hanger Spacing for Steel PipeTable 2 - Maximum Hanger Spacing for Copper Tubing

This Appendix contains bracing tables developed using allowable stress design(ASD) for the following seismic force values (i.e. “g-values”): .15g (ASD),.30g (ASD), .45g (ASD), .50g (ASD), .75g (ASD), and 1.0g (ASD). Thebuilding code uses strength design which can be increased by a factor of 1.4.(See page 1 for further information.) These charts cover the vast majority ofseismic requirements from coast to coast, from Zone 1 to Zone 4 applications,and take into account the many codes which may be referenced for a specificproject.

The seismic zone, building type, and other factors determine the level ofseismic force for a particular project. The project design professional shoulddetermine the correct seismic force value using the appropriate building code andlocal requirements. Use of the correct table is very important to ensure that thecorrect brace spacing and anchorage is provided. See pages 1 - 8 for moreinformation.

SUPPORT SPACING FOR SINGLE ROD HANGER PIPING

Table 2 - Maximum Hanger Spacing for Copper Tubing

Seismic Force Level (g’s) 0.15g (ASD)

Notes:1). Many codes require pipe hangers to be spaced every 10’-0” (3.05m) regardless of size. Check

your local codes. Spacing and capacities are based on water filled standard weight pipe. Closerhanger spacing may be required when additional valves and fittings increase the load. Forelectrical conduit support spacing and weight of conduit filled with conductors information,see B-Line Strut Systems Catalog.

2). The “structure connection type” is the brace anchorage requirement. See pages 23 thru 38 forbrace attachment details

3). The hanger and rod loads indicates the maximum tension in the rod (and hanger) due to gravity and the additional seismic forces. Select a rod attachment detail from pages 39 thru 56 that meets the rod load requirements. Be sure to follow the guidelines on page 57 & 58 to see if a rod stiffener is required, due to the length of the rod. Rod stiffeners, if necessary, are only required at braced locations. Unbraced hangers never require rod stiffeners. Select a pipe hanger from pages 63 thru 71 that meets the hanger load requirements.

4). Braces must be attached within 4 inches (101mm) of hanger, see Figure 5, 6 and 8.

5). Table 1 is for steel pipe. Spacing limitations may exist for other types of pipe. SeeNote E) on page 9.

6). Seismic forces include 1/3 of horizontal seismic force applied in vertical direction.

7). Charts on pages 83 - 86 are for 0.15g (ASD) applications.

SUPPORT SPACING FOR SINGLE ROD HANGER PIPING

Table 2 - Maximum Hanger Spacing for Copper Tubing

Seismic Force Level (g’s) 0.30g (ASD)

Notes:1). Many codes require pipe hangers to be spaced every 10’-0” (3.05m) regardless of size. Check

your local codes. Spacing and capacities are based on water filled standard weight pipe. Closerhanger spacing may be required when additional valves and fittings increase the load. Forelectrical conduit support spacing and weight of conduit filled with conductors information,see B-Line Strut Systems Catalog.

2). The “structure connection type” is the brace anchorage requirement. See pages 23 thru 38 forbrace attachment details

3). The hanger and rod loads indicates the maximum tension in the rod (and hanger) due to gravity and the additional seismic forces. Select a rod attachment detail from pages 39 thru 56 that meets the rod load requirements. Be sure to follow the guidelines on page 57 & 58 to see if a rod stiffener is required, due to the length of the rod. Rod stiffeners, if necessary, are only required at braced locations. Unbraced hangers never require rod stiffeners. Select a pipe hanger from pages 63 thru 71 that meets the hanger load requirements.

4). Braces must be attached within 4 inches (101mm) of hanger, see Figure 5, 6 and 8.

5). Table 1 is for steel pipe. Spacing limitations may exist for other types of pipe. SeeNote E) on page 9.

6). Seismic forces include 1/3 of horizontal seismic force applied in vertical direction.

7). Charts on pages 87 - 90 are for 0.30g (ASD) applications.

SUPPORT SPACING FOR SINGLE ROD HANGER PIPING

Table 2 - Maximum Hanger Spacing for Copper Tubing

Seismic Force Level (g’s) 0.45g (ASD)

Notes:1). Many codes require pipe hangers to be spaced every 10’-0” (3.05m) regardless of size. Check

your local codes. Spacing and capacities are based on water filled standard weight pipe. Closerhanger spacing may be required when additional valves and fittings increase the load. Forelectrical conduit support spacing and weight of conduit filled with conductors information,see B-Line Strut Systems Catalog.

2). The “structure connection type” is the brace anchorage requirement. See pages 23 thru 38 forbrace attachment details

3). The hanger and rod loads indicates the maximum tension in the rod (and hanger) due to gravity and the additional seismic forces. Select a rod attachment detail from pages 39 thru 56 that meets the rod load requirements. Be sure to follow the guidelines on page 57 & 58 to see if a rod stiffener is required, due to the length of the rod. Rod stiffeners, if necessary, are only required at braced locations. Unbraced hangers never require rod stiffeners. Select a pipe hanger from pages 63 thru 71 that meets the hanger load requirements.

4). Braces must be attached within 4 inches (101mm) of hanger, see Figure 5, 6 and 8.

5). Table 1 is for steel pipe. Spacing limitations may exist for other types of pipe. SeeNote E) on page 9.

6). Seismic forces include 1/3 of horizontal seismic force applied in vertical direction.

7). Charts on pages 91 - 94 are for 0.45g (ASD) applications.

SUPPORT SPACING FOR SINGLE ROD HANGER PIPING

Table 2 - Maximum Hanger Spacing for Copper Tubing

Seismic Force Level (g’s) 0.50g (ASD)

Notes:1). Many codes require pipe hangers to be spaced every 10’-0” (3.05m) regardless of size. Check

your local codes. Spacing and capacities are based on water filled standard weight pipe. Closerhanger spacing may be required when additional valves and fittings increase the load. Forelectrical conduit support spacing and weight of conduit filled with conductors information,see B-Line Strut Systems Catalog.

2). The “structure connection type” is the brace anchorage requirement. See pages 23 thru 38 forbrace attachment details

3). The hanger and rod loads indicates the maximum tension in the rod (and hanger) due to gravity and the additional seismic forces. Select a rod attachment detail from pages 39 thru 56 that meets the rod load requirements. Be sure to follow the guidelines on page 57 & 58 to see if a rod stiffener is required, due to the length of the rod. Rod stiffeners, if necessary, are only required at braced locations. Unbraced hangers never require rod stiffeners. Select a pipe hanger from pages 63 thru 71 that meets the hanger load requirements.

4). Braces must be attached within 4 inches (101mm) of hanger, see Figure 5, 6 and 8.

5). Table 1 is for steel pipe. Spacing limitations may exist for other types of pipe. SeeNote E) on page 9.

6). Seismic forces include 1/3 of horizontal seismic force applied in vertical direction.

7). Charts on pages 95 - 98 are for 0.50g (ASD) applications.

SUPPORT SPACING FOR SINGLE ROD HANGER PIPINGTable 2 - Maximum Hanger Spacing for Copper Tubing

Seismic Force Level (g’s) 0.75g (ASD)

Notes:1). Many codes require pipe hangers to be spaced every 10’-0” (3.05m) regardless of size. Check

your local codes. Spacing and capacities are based on water filled standard weight pipe. Closerhanger spacing may be required when additional valves and fittings increase the load. Forelectrical conduit support spacing and weight of conduit filled with conductors information,see B-Line Strut Systems Catalog.

2). The “structure connection type” is the brace anchorage requirement. See pages 23 thru 38 forbrace attachment details

3). The hanger and rod loads indicates the maximum tension in the rod (and hanger) due to gravity and the additional seismic forces. Select a rod attachment detail from pages 39 thru 56 that meets the rod load requirements. Be sure to follow the guidelines on page 57 & 58 to see if a rod stiffener is required, due to the length of the rod. Rod stiffeners, if necessary, are only required at braced locations. Unbraced hangers never require rod stiffeners. Select a pipe hanger from pages 63 thru 71 that meets the hanger load requirements.

4). Braces must be attached within 4 inches (101mm) of hanger, see Figure 5, 6 and 8.

5). Table 1 is are for steel pipe. Spacing limitations may exist for other types of pipe. SeeNote E) on page 9.

6). Seismic forces include 1/3 of horizontal seismic force applied in vertical direction.

7). Charts on pages 99 - 102 are for 0.75g (ASD) applications.

SUPPORT SPACING FOR SINGLE ROD HANGER PIPING

Table 2 - Maximum Hanger Spacing for Copper Tubing

Seismic Force Level (g’s) 1.0g (ASD)

Notes:1). Many codes require pipe hangers to be spaced every 10’-0” (3.05m) regardless of size. Check

your local codes. Spacing and capacities are based on water filled standard weight pipe. Closerhanger spacing may be required when additional valves and fittings increase the load. Forelectrical conduit support spacing and weight of conduit filled with conductors information,see B-Line Strut Systems Catalog.

2). The “structure connection type” is the brace anchorage requirement. See pages 23 thru 38 forbrace attachment details

3). The hanger and rod loads indicates the maximum tension in the rod (and hanger) due to gravity and the additional seismic forces. Select a rod attachment detail from pages 39 thru 56 that meets the rod load requirements. Be sure to follow the guidelines on page 57 & 58 to see if a rod stiffener is required, due to the length of the rod. Rod stiffeners, if necessary, are only required at braced locations. Unbraced hangers never require rod stiffeners. Select a pipe hanger from pages 63 thru 71 that meets the hanger load requirements.

4). Braces must be attached within 4 inches (101mm) of hanger, see Figure 5, 6 and 8.

5). Table 1 is for steel pipe. Spacing limitations may exist for other types of pipe. SeeNote E) on page 9.

6). Seismic forces include 1/3 of horizontal seismic force applied in vertical direction.

7). Charts on pages 103 - 106 are for 1.00g applications.

Table 1 - 2 Transverse and 2 Longitudinal Braces at each LocationTable 2 - 1 Transverse and 2 Longitudinal Braces at each Location

This Appendix contains bracing tables developed using allowable stress design(ASD) for the following seismic force values (i.e. “g-values”): .15g (ASD),.30g (ASD), .45g (ASD), .50g (ASD), .75g (ASD), and 1.0g (ASD). Thebuilding code uses strength design which can be increased by a factor of 1.4. (Seepage 1 for further information.) These charts cover the vast majority of seismicrequirements from coast to coast, from Zone 1 to Zone 4 applications, and takeinto account the many codes which may be referenced for a specific project.

The seismic zone, building type, and other factors determine the level ofseismic force for a particular project. The project design professional shoulddetermine the correct seismic force value using the appropriate building code andlocal requirements. Use of the correct table is very important to ensure that thecorrect brace spacing and anchorage is provided. See pages 1 - 8 for moreinformation.

TRAPEZE BRACING

Footnotes1. It is not necessary to install both transverse braces and longitudinal braces on the same trapeze support. For

example, it is common to install transverse braces on trapezes every 40 ft., and then install both transverse and longitudinal braces every 80 ft.

2. The “structure connection type” is the brace anchorage requirement. See pages 23 thru 38 for brace attachment details.

3. Any combination of brace interval and structure connection type (anchor size) may be used for a given system weight and support span. For example, it is not necessary to use structure connection type II for both transverse and longitudinal braces. Often longitudinal braces are spaced at a greater distance, and would require a larger anchor when attaching to structure.

4. The bracing intervals listed are maximums. They are rounded down to facilitate construction. For example, it is common to use a longitudinal bracing interval that is twice the transverse spacing.

5. The rod load indicates the maximum tension in the rod due to gravity and 1/3 of the horizontal seismic force applied in the vertical direction for “unbraced trapezes”. For trapezes with braces attached, the rod load also includes additional seismic loads. Note that the rod loads at braced locations are significantly higher than unbraced trapezes. Select a hanger rod attachment detail from pages 39 thru 56 that meets the load requirements.

6. The minimum rod size is given for both braced and unbraced trapezes. Due to the additional seismic forces at braced trapezes, the rod sizes may be significantly larger. Be sure to follow the guidelines on page 57 to see if a rod stiffener is required, due to the length of the rod. Rod stiffeners, if necessary, are only required at braced locations. Unbraced trapezes never require rod stiffeners.

7. Seismic forces for charts in Appendix 2 (pages 109 - 144) include 1/3 of horizontal seismic force applied in vertical direction.

8. Charts in Appendix 2 (pages 109 - 144) are for the seismic force levels (%g) listed on those pages.

Notes1. Anchor diameter refers to the thread size for the Wedge & Shell categories and to the anchor outside diameter for the Sleeve category.

2. Apply proof test loads to Wedge & Sleeve anchors without removing the nut if possible. If not, remove nut and install a threaded couplerto the same tightness as the original nut using a torque wrench and apply load.

3. For Sleeve/Shell internally threaded categories, verify that the anchor is not prevented from withdrawing by a baseplate or other fixtures.If restraint is found, loosen and shim or remove fixture(s) prior to testing.

4. Reaction loads from test fixtures may be applied close to the anchor being tested, provided the anchor is not restrained from withdrawingby the fixture(s).

5. Shell type anchors should be tested as follows:

a. Visually inspect 25% for full expansion as evidenced by the location of the expansion plug in the anchor body. Plug location of a fullyexpanded anchor should be as recommended by the manufacturer, or, in the absence of such recommendation, as determined on thejob site following the manufacturer’s installation instructions. At least 5% of the anchors shall be proof loaded as indicated in the tableabove, but not less than three anchors per day for each different person or crew installing anchors, or;

b. Test 50% of the installed anchors per Section 1925B.3.5.

6. Test equipment (including torque wrenches) is to be calibrated by an approved testing laboratory in accordance with standard recognizedprocedures.

7. Torque test values for Shell type anchors can occur on an case-by-case basis when test procedures are submitted and approved by theenforcement agency.

8. The following criteria apply for the acceptance of installed anchors;

Hydraulic Ram Method: The anchor should have no observable movement at the applicable test load. For wedge and sleeve typeanchors, a practical way to determine observable movement is that the washer under the nut becomes loose.

Torque Wrench Method: The applicable test torque must be reached within the following limits;Wedge or Sleeve type: One-half (1/2) turn of the nut.

One-quarter (1/4) turn of the nut for 3/8 inch sleeve anchor only.

9. Testing should occur a minimum of 24 hours after installation of the subject anchors.

10. If the manufacturer’s recommended installation torque is less than the test torque noted in the table, the manufacturer’s recommendedinstallation torque should be used in lieu of the tabulated values.

11. All tests shall be performed in the presence of the Inspector of Record.

2000 International Building CodeAs defined in the 2000 International Building Code, Chapter 16, Section 1621, the seismic horizontal force, Fp,may be calculated using the following formula:

Except that: Fp shall not be less than 0.3 SDS Ip Wp and need not be more than 1.6 SDS Ip Wp.

Where:

Fp = Seismic Force Level

ap = Amplification Factor (Table 1621.3)

Rp = Component Response Modification Factor, (Table 1621.3) which varies from 1.0 to 5.0

= 1.5 for shallow embedded anchors where the embedment length-to-diameter ratio is less than 8. (Table 1621.1.7)i.e. a 1/2" diameter anchor embedded less than 4" in concrete.

Ip = Importance Factor (Table 1621.1.6)

= 1.5 for Life-safety components required to function after an earthquake, buildings containing hazardous or flammable material, and for storage racks open to the general public.

SDS= Design spectral response acceleration at short period several factors: Seismic zone, Soil Property Type, and Distance from known fault. (Section 1615.1.3)

Where,SDS = (2/3) SMS (Section 1615.1.3)

SMS = FaSS Maximum considered spectral response acceleration for short period (Section 1615.1.2)

Fa = Site coefficient, which is a combination of the Mapped spectral Acceleration SS and Site Class (Table 1615.1.2(1))

SS = Mapped Spectral Acceleration for short periods (Section 1615.1)Site Class = Soil type, “A thru F” (Table 1615.1.1)

z = Element or component attachment elevation with respect to grade. Note: (z) shall not be taken less than 0.0

1997 Uniform Building CodeAs defined in the 1997 Uniform Building Code, Chapter 16, Section 1632, the seismic horizontal force, Fp, maybe calculated using the following formula:

Except that: Fp shall not be less than 0.7 Ca Ip Wp and need not be more than 4 Ca Ip Wp.

Where:

Fp = Seismic Force Level

ap = Amplification Factor (Table 16-O)

Rp = Component Response Modification Factor (Table 16-O)= 3.0 for electrical, mechanical and plumbing equipment and associated

conduit, ductwork and piping.= 1.5 for installations using concrete anchors with an embedment-to-diameter

ratio less than 8.i.e. a 1/2" diameter concrete anchor with an embedment of less than 4" inches.

Ip = Importance Factor (Table 16-K)= 1.5 for Essential facilities such as Hospitals, Fire Stations, Police Stations,

Aviation Control Towers, etc. consult Table 16-K in UBC for a detailed list.= 1.0 for most other occupancies

Ca = Seismic Coefficient. This is an accumulation of several factors: (Table 16-Q)Seismic Zone (Table 16-I), Soil Property Type (Table 16-J), and Distance from known faults. (Table 16-S, and Table 16-U)

hx = Element or component attachment elevation with respect to grade. Note: hx shall not be taken less than 0.0

hr = Structure Roof Elevation with respect to grade.

Fp = apCaIp (1 + 3 • hx )WpRp hr

Example One, Deeply Embedded Anchors:

Cable tray system is suspended on the 1st floor of a 40-foot tall, 2-story surgical center in California.The cable tray is actually suspended from the bottom of the 2nd floor, which has an elevation of 20feet above grade. Location of the surgical center is in seismic zone 4 with a rock soil profile.

ap = 1.0 from Table 16-OCa = .40Na from Table 16A-Q, which is combination of Seismic Zone factor and Soil

profile typeWhere,

Z = .40 for seismic zone 4 applications (Table 16-I)Soil Profile Type = SB for rock sediment (Table 16-J)Seismic Source Type = B for faults other than Type A & C (Table 16-U)Na = 1.0, for 5 km from known seismic source (Table 16-S)

Ip = (1.5) for an essential surgery and emergency treatment area (Table 16-K)

Rp = (3.0) for cable trays supported with deep embedded anchors (Table 16-O)

hx = 20 feet, for the elevation of the floor used to support the cable tray

hr = 40 feet, for the elevation of the structure roof

Check if value falls within limits:

Fp shall not be taken less than, 0.7CaIpWp = 0.7(.40)(1.5)Wp = .42g

Fp shall not be greater than, 4.0CaIpWp = 4.0(.40)(1.5)Wp = 2.4g

2.4g > .5 > 0.42g Therefore allowing the use of 0.50g

To convert this Fp from a strength design, as just determined from the building code, to anAllowable Stress Design (ASD) used in the Cooper B-Line Seismic Restraints Manual divide by 1.4.

0.36g is the Allowable Stress Design Seismic Load Factor determined from 1997 UniformBuilding Code.

Special Note: Installations using concrete anchors installed with an embedment length-to-diameterratio of less than 8, also referred as shallow embedment anchors, have an adjusted ComponentResponse Factor being Rp = 1.5.

Fp = apCaIp (1 + 3 • hx )WpRp hr

Fp = (1.0)((0.40(1.0))(1.5) (1 + 3 •20 )Wp = 0.50Wp = 0.50g

Example Two, Shallow Embedded Anchors:

In this example a cable tray system is suspended on the 1st floor of a 40-foot tall, 2-story surgicalcenter in California. The cable tray is actually suspended from the 2nd floor, which has an eleva-tion of 20 feet above grade. Location of the surgical center is in seismic zone 4 with a rock soilprofile, however shallow embedment anchors (length-to-diameter ratio of less than 8) are used atbrace locations.

ap = 1.0 from Table 16-O

Ca = (.40Na) which is combination of seismic zone factor and soil profile type from (Table 16-Q)

Where,Z = .40 for seismic zone 4 applications (Table 16-I)Soil Profile type = SB for rock sediment (Table 16-J)Seismic Source Type = B for faults other than Type A & C (Table 16-U)Near Source Factor = 1.0 for 5 km from known seismic source (Table 16-S)

Ip = (1.5) for an essential surgery and emergency treatment areas (Table 16-K)

Rp = (1.5) for cable trays supported with shallow embedded anchors (Table 16-O)

hx = 20 feet, for the elevation of the floor used to support the cable tray

hr = 40 feet. for the elevation of the structure roof

Check if value falls within limits:Fp shall not be taken less than, 0.7CaIpWp = 0.7(.40)(1.5)Wp = .42g

Fp shall not be greater than, 4.0CaIpWp = 4.0(.40)(1.5)Wp = 2.4g

2.4g > 1.0g > 0.42g Therefore allowing the use of 1.0g

To convert this Fp from a strength design, as just determined from the building code, to anAllowable Stress Design (ASD) used in the Cooper B-Line Seismic Restraints Manual divide by 1.4.

0.71g is the Allowable Stress Design Seismic Load Factor determined from 1997 UniformBuilding Code for shallow embedment anchors.
