GENERAL APPLICATION NOTES <br /> 1. ISAT Application Notes, Engineered Bracing Tables and Detail Drawings comply with <br /> the requirements of a spectrum of codes, standards and guidelines including but not <br /> limited to the 2012 and 2015 International Building Codes, the 2013 and 2016 <br /> California Building Codes (including OSHPD Type II, Ill and Type 1 & IV with post <br /> approval documents) and ASCE 7-10. Other recommended provisions and research <br /> documents such as FEMA 302, FEMA 368, FEMA P750, Army Corp of Engineers TI- <br /> 809-04, Department of Defense UFC 3-310-04(6/13) and NFPA 13 are used as <br /> references and supporting documents. <br /> 2. "Every structure, and portion thereof, including nonstructural components that are <br /> permanently attached to structures and their supports and attachments, shall be <br /> designed and constructed to resist the effects of earthquake motions in accordance <br /> with ASCE 7 . . ." per IBC Section 1613.1. <br /> 3. Project seismic design parameters shall be defined on the plans or within the <br /> construction documents by the Engineer of Record in accordance with IBC Section <br /> 1603.1.5, "Earthquake design data". Specific earthquake data used for nonstructural <br /> seismic bracing design includes: <br /> a. Risk Category <br /> b. Mapped spectral response accelerations parameters, Ss and S1 <br /> c. Site Class <br /> d. Design spectral response accelerations parameters, SDS and SD1 <br /> e.Seismic Design Category <br /> 4. Information within the ISAT Manual is intended only as a guideline for the design of <br /> seismic restraint systems. It is not intended as the basis for the design of the <br /> suspended utility nor is it intended to be all inclusive of every element of the suspended <br /> utility. Certain elements of systems such as trapeze assemblies, support frames for <br /> suspended equipment may require additional design, analysis and detailing by a <br /> Registered Structural Engineer. Contact ISAT Technical Service for assistance. <br /> 5. All seismic bracing assemblies shall utilize ISAT supplied, proprietary, seismic brackets <br /> unless noted otherwise. No Substitutions Allowed. <br /> 6. The Engineer of Record for the building shall review the ISAT attachment details and <br /> loads to determine the suitability of the structure to accept such loads prior to <br /> installation of the seismic bracing system. <br /> 7. Component Importance Factors are those assigned by the design team, not ISAT. <br /> wiry <br /> 4_,International Seismic Application Technology <br /> 14848 Northam Street,La Mirada, CA 90638 <br /> 877-999-4728 (Toll Free) 714-523-0845(fax) <br /> www.isatsb.com <br /> o Rev. 1 <br /> Q �� 10/01/14 <br /> s4710 sm Page <br /> # s � * 4.1 <br /> .9OCT‘39'' <br /> ' <br /> (OF CAO-Q 2012/15 IBC <br />
