However, it isrecognized that capable triaxial testing facilities are limitedin number, and this may restrict testing access. Use ofbiaxial or uniaxial testing shall consider componentconfiguration in determining orientations that permit thelargest response to shake table accelerations. Thefollowing requirements shall be used when performingtriaxial, biaxial, or uniaxial testing.5.2.2.7.2 The resonance frequency in each ofthe three directions for each UUT shall be included in thereport similar to Table 2 below.TABLE 2—UNIT UNDER TEST (UUT) RESONANCEFREQUENCYUUTIdentification6.4.1.1 Triaxial Testing: If a triaxial test isperformed, the test shall be performed in one stage withthe two principal horizontal axes and the vertical axis ofthe UUT simultaneously tested.RESONANCE FREQUENCY (Hz)Front-to-BackSide-to-SideSEISMIC CERTIFICATION TEST PROCEDUREVertical6.4.1.2 Biaxial Testing: If a biaxial test isperformed, the test shall be performed in two stages, withthe UUT rotated 90 degrees about the vertical axis for thesecond stage.5.2.2.7.3 Verification that simultaneous shaketable motion in three orthogonal directions are phaseincoherent (statistically independent) shall be provided.6.4.1.3 Uniaxial Testing: If a uniaxial test isperformed, the test shall be performed in three distinctstages, with the UUT rotated after each stage, such thatall three principal axes of the UUT have been tested.5.2.2.8 Test results and conclusions including anyanomalies observed during or after the test, andjustification that the component is still qualified.

ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA FOR SEISMIC CERTIFICATION BY SHAKE-TABLETESTING OF NONSTRUCTURAL COMPONENTS (AC156)mounting method shall be the same as that recommendedfor actual service, and shall use the minimumrecommended bolt size, bolt type, bolt torque,configuration, weld pattern and type (if applicable), etc.The orientation of the UUT during the tests shall be suchthat the principal axes of the UUT are collinear with theaxes of excitation of the shake table. A description of anyinterposing fixtures and connections between the UUT andthe shake table shall be provided.6.4.4 Monitoring: Sufficient vibration responsemonitoring instrumentation shall be used to allowdetermination of the applied acceleration levels in theprincipal horizontal and vertical axes of the shake table.Reference control accelerometers shall be mounted on theshake table at a location near the base of the UUT.Vibration response monitoring instrumentation shall alsobe used to determine the response of the UUT, at thosepoints within the structure that reflect the UUT’s responseassociated with its structural fundamental frequencies.Placement locations for the response sensors shall be atthe discretion of the UUT manufacturer or themanufacturer’s representative and approved by the testlaboratory prior to testing. Sensors shall be installed,calibrated and approved by the test laboratory prior totesting. The accredited laboratory shall document thelocation, orientation, and calibration of all vibrationmonitoring sensors.FIGURE 1—REQUIRED RESPONSE SPECTRUM,NORMALIZED FOR THE COMPONENTThe required response spectra for both horizontaland vertical directions shall be developed based on theformula for total design horizontal force, Fp, as follows:When the building dynamic characteristics are notknown or specified, the horizontal force requirements shallbe as determined using Equation 13.3-1 of ASCE 7,which reads as follows:6.4.5 Resonant Frequency Search: The resonantfrequency search test is for determining the resonantfrequencies and damping of components. The dataobtained from the search test is an essential part of ancomponent certification; however, the search test does notconstitute a seismic test certification by itself. A low-levelamplitude (0.1 0.05 g peak input; a lower input level maybe used to avoid component damage) single-axissinusoidal sweep from 1.3 to 33.3 Hz shall be performedin each orthogonal UUT axis to determine resonantfrequencies. The sweep rate shall be two octaves perminute, or less, to ensure adequate time for maximumresponse at the resonant frequencies. Transmissibilityplots of the in- line UUT response monitoring sensors shallbe provided along with a table showing resonantfrequencies in accordance with Section 5.2.2.7.2.6.5Fp 0.4a p S DS z 1 2 W p R p I p h The height factor ratio (z / h) accounts for abovegrade-level component installations within the primarysupporting structure and ranges from zero at grade–levelto one at roof level, essentially acting as a force increasefactor to recognize building amplification as you move upwithin the primary structure. The site-specific groundspectral acceleration factor, SDS, varies per geographiclocation and site soil conditions. The SDS factor is used todefine the general design earthquake response spectrumcurve and is used to determine the design seismic forcesfor the primary building structure. The ratio of Rp over Ip(Rp / Ip) is considered to be a design reduction factor toaccount for inelastic response and represents theallowable inelastic energy absorption capacity of thecomponent’s force-resisting system. During the seismicsimulation test, the UUT will respond to the excitation andinelastic behavior will naturally occur. Therefore, the ratio(Rp / Ip) shall be set equal to 1, which is indicative of anunreduced response. The importance factor, Ip, does notincrease the seismic test input motion but does affect therequirement for the UUT to demonstrate a level offunctionality following seismic simulation testing, and isused in this criteria to determine post test UUTfunctionality compliance in accordance with Section 6.7.The component amplification factor, ap, acts as a forceincrease factor by accounting for probable amplification ofresponse associated with the inherent flexibility of thenonstructural component. The component amplificationfactor, ap, shall be taken from the formal definition offlexible and rigid components. By definition, forfundamental frequencies less than 16.7 Hz thecomponent is considered flexible (maximum amplificationap 2.5), which corresponds to the amplified region of theMultifrequency Seismic Simulation Tests:6.5.1 Derivation of Seismic RRS: The componentearthquake effects shall be determined for combinedhorizontal and vertical load effects. The required responsespectra for the horizontal direction shall be developedbased on the normalized response spectra shown inFigure 1, and the formula for total design horizontal force,Fp. The required response spectra for the vertical directionshall be developed based on two-thirds of the ground-levelbase horizontal acceleration. The seismic parametersspecified in Section 4.3 shall be used to calculate the RRSlevels as defined by AFLX-H , ARIG-H, AFLX-V, and ARIG-V. TheRR
