TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the development of codes, design practices, and seismic design process of non-building structures and discuss some unique problems and challenges for the structural engineers that design these types of structures.
Abstract: The building code development process has traditionally given little effort to developing the seismic design process of nonbuilding structures. This has created some unique problems and challenges for the structural engineers that design these types of structures. The intended seismic performance requirements for “building” design are based on life safety and collapse prevention. Structural elements in buildings are allowed to yield as a method of seismic energy dissipation. The seismic performance of nonbuilding structures varies depending on the specific type of nonbuilding structure. Nonlinear behavior in some nonbuilding structures is unacceptable while other nonbuilding structures may be allowed to yield during an earthquake. Nonbuilding structures comprise a vast myriad of structures constructed of all types of materials, with markedly different dynamic characteristics, and with a wide range of performance requirements. This paper discusses the development of codes, design practices, and fu...

TL;DR: In this article, a comprehensive judgment method for bearing capacity of basalt in a Zhanjiang area is characterized by comprising the following steps: (1), firstly according to a national standard classification method, RMR and a Q classification method; (2), then utilizing a self-designed neural network system to pre-estimate the bearing capacity; and (3), combining with place internal building (nonbuilding structure) structure load requirements and a deformation allowable value, and carrying out numerical simulation by adopting a finite element numerical simulation method.
Abstract: A comprehensive judgment method for bearing capacity of basalt in a Zhanjiang area is characterized by comprising the following steps: (1), firstly according to a national standard classification method, RMR and a Q classification method, carrying out comprehensive judgment of rock mass classification of basalt; (2), then utilizing a self-designed neural network system to pre-estimate the bearing capacity; and (3), combining with place internal building (nonbuilding structure) structure load requirements and a deformation allowable value, and carrying out numerical simulation by adopting a finite element numerical simulation method. The method has the advantages that: 1, firstly, basalt is initially classified, and geological characteristics can be fully considered; 2, the neural network system is adopted to pre-estimate the basalt bearing capacity; and 3, by adopting the numerical simulation analysis, the basalt bearing capacity is provided, and at the same time, the building (nonbuilding structure) deformation requirements are considered.
