Impact on REAL projects
Impact on “bottom line”:


New stiff shear wall or column
strengthening needed based on FEMA 356
No retrofit needed to address columns
based on ASCE 41 Supplement.
= less disruption and $$$$ Savings
End result = more retrofit projects done
and reduced seismic risk!!

 p table
A supplement to ASCE/SEI 41 Seismic Rehabilitation of Existing
Buildings has been developed for the purpose of updating provisions related to
existing reinforced concrete buildings. Based on experimental evidence, the
proposed supplement includes revisions to stiffness models for beams, columns and
beam-column joints, and substantive revisions to acceptance criteria for reinforced
concrete columns, structural walls, and slab-column frames. These revisions will
result in substantially more accurate, and in most cases more liberal, assessments of
structural capacity of concrete components in seismic retrofit projects.

 Facilitate development of more
liberal acceptance criteria of other
materials.
 “Alternative Acceptance Criteria”
Backbone created using peak
of first cycle of each increment
of loading (or deformation).
- less exaggeration of rate
of degradation.
- more realistic backbone.
