Accidental Eccentricity
Allows rational amplification factors to be established that
bound the effects of accidental mass eccentricity
Separate factors for isolator displacement, story drift and story
shear
Run models for inherent eccentricity only, then
Apply appropriate amplification factors to computed response
Rotation of Ground Motion Records
not required
Structural Systems
Steel OCBF superstructure permitted
Height limited to 160 feet
RI = 1
DTmax increased by 1.2

Steel Grid permitted immediately above isolators with Ordinary
moment connections (elastic at MCER)

Prototype Testing
Production Testing
100% tested (same as present)
New EXCEPTION:
Production damping devices need not be tested if it can be shown by
other means that their properties meet the requirements of the
project specifications
In such cases, the RDP shall establish an alternative program to assure
the quality of the installed damping devices
intended to cover hardware such as steel yielding devices, which would
undergo inelastic action or be otherwise damaged (by design) under the
prescribed production test program
must production-test at least one device of each type and size
