Analytical methods and experimental correlations for piping high level inelastic seismic response

OSTI ID:6558152
Failure load level predictions are computed for a 6-inch (15.2 cm) diameter carbon steel nuclear pipe system subjected to high level seismic loads. Results obtained using several simplified elastic, elasto-plastic and non-linear transient dynamic inelastic analysis methods are compared with each other and with test data. These analytical methods are shown to underpredict the loads capacity of the pipe system. The data confirms that present analytical methods for pipe seismic design are conservative. It also supports the contemporary position, that seismic loads should not be treated as primary loads in pipe design.
