Seismic and Dynamic Qualification of Mechanical and Electrical Equipment RS Rev. 0 ABWR Design Control Document/Tier 2 [Qualification by analysis alone, w ithout testing, is acceptable only if the necessary functional operability of the equipment is as sured by its structural integrity alone.

Practice Exams for the California Seismic Principles Civil P.E. Examination is a book and a Computer Based Test (CBT) simulation software to help you prepare for the special seismic exam with its /5(24). Uniaxial Test: A dynamic test in which the test specimen is subjected to acceleration in one principal axis.

The acceleration components are derived from a single input signal. Unit Under Test (UUT): The equipment item to be qualification-tested.

SEISMIC REVIEW TEAM QUALIFICATIONS P:\\SHNPrpt~irv. R Rev. 0 Appendix A Page A-2 JEFFREY H. BOND Jeffrey H. Bond has over seventeen years of experience in the design, analysis, testing, and qualification of industrial and nuclear systems, structures, and and seismic qualification of equipment.

He has served as. Common methods currently in use for seismic qualification by test are presented. Scope: Recommended practices for establishing procedures that will yield data, which verify that the Class 1E equipment can meet its performance requirements during and following one safe shutdown earthquake (SSE) preceded by a number of operating basis earthquakes.

For seismic qualification testing of the device the excitation signal is specified by the velocity RRS curve at 5% damping shown in Figure 3. The specifications of a dynamic shaker suitable for conducting the test are determined as follows.

A Dynamic-Test Procedure for Improving Seismic Qualification Guidelines C. deSilva Department of Mechanical Engineering, Carnegie-Mellon University, Pittsburgh, PA Read the latest articles of Applied Acoustics atElsevier’s leading platform of peer-reviewed scholarly literature.

Methods of Seismic Qualification 5. Four basic procedures can be used for the seismic qualification of structures, plant and components: (i) Anal ys is (ii) Shake Table Testing (iii) Low vibration modal testing in combination with analysis (iv) Experience Ana1 ys is: Analysis techniques predict responses of system models by calculation.

Common methods currently in use for seismic qualification by test are presented. Two approaches to seismic analysis are described, one based on dynamic analysis and the other on static coefficient analysis. Two approaches to experienced-based seismic evaluation are described, one based on earthquake experience and the other based on test.
