Tbe earth crust is composed of severa! layers of hard "tectonic" plates, called litho-
spheres, wbich float on tbe soíter, underpinning, fluid medium caUed mande. Tbese
plates or rock masses, when fractured, form fault fines. Tbe adjoining plates or rock
rnasses are prevented by the interacting frictional forces from moving past one another
most of the time. However, when this frictional ultimate resistance is reached because of
the continuous motion of the underlying fluid, any two plates can impact on one another,
generating seismic waves that can cause large horizontal and vertical ground motions.
Tbese ground motions translate into inertia forces in structures.
Toe length and width of a fault are interrelated to the magnitude of the earthquake.
The fault is the cause rather than the result of tbe earthquake. A fault can cause an earth
quake due to tbe following reasons (Ref. 13.5):
l. Cumulative strain in the fault over a long period of time reacbes the rupture level.
2. Slip of the tecton.ic plates at tbe fault zones causes a rebound, as in Fig. 13.l(a).

3. Sudden push and puJI forces at the fauJt lead to reverse moment couples, as in Fig.
13.l(b). The moment caused by these couples as a measure of eartbquake size can
be termed the seismic moments. Toe magnitude is equaJ to rock rigidity x fauJt area
x amount of slip. Tbe range of slip velocity in such faults as the San Andreas Fault
in California is 30 to 100 mm per year. On this basis, a slippage or horizontal motion
of 3 m al sucb faults in one single earthquake is expected to occur at intervals of 30
to 100 years,

Earthquakes may be characterized by tbree categories: low, moderate, and high in-
tensity. The intensity is govemed by grouod motion accelerations, represented by re
sponse spectra and coefficients derived from sucb spectra. A structure is expected to
respond essentially elastically to lowintensity earthquakes. In such a case, the stresses
are expected to remain within tbe elastic range, with a slight possibility of developing lim
ited inelasticity witb no appreciable structural or nonstructural damage. Structural re
sponse is expected to be inelastic under highintensity eartbquakes having an intensity of
5 or higher on the Richter scale and in regions close to tbe epiceoter. For the design of
structures in seismic zooes. two methods are presented in tbe IBC 2009 code, the spectral
response method and the equivalent lateral force method. The latter has certain limita
tions that will be discussed later.
A detailed discussion of tbe subject of earthquakes is beyond the scope of this book
since the primary airo of this cbapter is tbe proportioning of seismic resistant components
of concrete structures. However, sorne of the basic underlying cbaracteristics are impor
tant to cover. Tbey are intended to help define the magnitude of the lateral seisrnic base
shear forces tbat determine the geometry and forro of the eartbquake resisting compo
nents of a structure. namely. the lateral force resisting system (LFRS).
Such a system has two components: horizontal and vertical. The horizontal ele
ments are the components that resist the seismic forces. They can be diapbragms. cou
pling beams. and sbear walls. Toe vertical component comprises the walls and vertical
frames of tbe structure.
acceleration and peak ground displacement become the principal parameters in the seis
mic design of structures.
Additional factors also affect the response of a structure. They include frequency,
amplitude of motion, shaking duration, and site soil characteristics. These can ali be rep
resented by a response spectrum which idealizes a structure into a dampened, single de
gree of freedom system (SDF) oscillating at various periods and frequencies. The
maximum vibration magnitude reached during any time duration after the base ground
motion is its spectral value.

The design spectral response accelerations at short periods (55) and at 1 sec (51) are
to be adjusted for site class effect (SMs) at short periods and (SM1) for 1 sec based on
Table 13.1 in conjunction with Tables 13.2(a) and 13.2(b) for síte coeffícíents.
The maximum considered earthquake spectral response for short and one second
periods are respectively defined by the following expressions where for 5 percent
damped design, the spectral response acceleration becomes:

Category IV structures located where the mapped spectral response acceleration para
meter at 1second period Sm, is greater than or equal to 0.75, the structure should be as
signed to Seismic design Category F.
All other structures should be assigned to a seismic design category based on their
occupancy category and the design spectral response coefficients S os and S zn as defined
in Equations 13.3 (a) and (b) or the sitespecific procedures of ASCE 7. But each struc
ture should be assigned to more severe seismic category in accordance with Tables 13.3
(a) or 13.3 (b) irrespective of the fundamental period of vibration, T.
To amplify, there are exceptions that allow for the Seismic Design Category to be
determined from Table 13.3 (a) alone. In order to use this exception, S1 must be less than
0.75 and all of the following requirements have to be met (Ref. 13.13).
The FEMA 302 Parts 1 and 2 defined seismic regions as follows in Ref. 13.15:
The structural analysis based on the worst load combinations should be the basis
for determining the seismic forces E for combined gravity and seismic load effects when
they are additive and the maximum seismic load effect Em. The value of E and Em are de
termined from the following expressions detailed in Ref, 13.2 for additive seismic force
and dead load:
E= pQE + 0.2 SnsD (13.4a)
E = il Qe

13.2.4 Redundancy
A redundancy coefficient p has to be assigned to all structures based on the extent of
structural redundancy inherent in the lateral force resisting system. For structures in seis
mic design categories A, B, and C, the value of the redundancy coefficient p is to be
taken as 1.0. For structures in seismic design categories D, E, and F, the redundancy coef
ficient p has to be taken as the largest of the values Pi computed at each story level "i" of
the structure in accordance with the expression

where
r max i = ratio of the design story shear resisted by the most heavily loaded single
element in the story to the total story shear for a given loading condition,

The value of p cannot be less than 1.0 and need not exceed 1.5.

cent. In arder to absorb the energy that can cause plastic hinging, the earthquake
resistant frame has to be ductile in part through confinement of the longitudinal rein
forcement of the columns and the beamcolumn joints and in part through the provision
of the excess shear capacity previously discussed.

inelastic action can develop in the column, and if large enough, can cause the column to
collapse. Furthermore, the consequence of a column failure is far more severe than a
local beam failure. Therefore, the ACI 31808 Codeas well as the IBC stipulates "strong
columns and weak beams". This is ensured by the following inequality
(13.26)
where !.Meo/ = sum of nominal flexura] strengths of columns framing into joint, calcu
lated for factored axial forces consistent with the direction of lateral
forces considered, resulting in lowest flexura] strength.
!.Mbm = sum of moments, at the face of the joint, corresponding to the nominal
flexura] strengths of the beams framing into that joint.

Members in trames designed for seismic regions can be classified into two categories for
proportioning transverse reinforcement as follows:
(a) Members with factored axial compressive force Pu not exceeding (Ag J:110) are
treated as beams.
(b) Members with factored axial compressive force Pu greater than (Ag ¡;110) are
treated as columns.
1. In seismic design, when the factored axial load P,, is negligible or significantly less
than Ag f~ /10, the member is considered a flexura! member (beam). If P,, >
Ag f ~ /10, the member is considered beamcolumn, because it is subjected to both
axial and flexura! loads as columns and shear walls are.
2. The shortest crosssectional dimension z 12 in. (300 mm).
3. The limitation on the longitudinal reinforcement ratio in the beamcolumn element
is 0.01 ~ Pg = A/Ag s 0.06. For practica! considerations, an upper limitation of 6
percent is too excessive, because it results in impractical congestion of longitudinal
reinforcement. A practica! maximum total percentage Pg of 3.5 percent to 4.0 per
cent should be a reasonable limit.

But under no condition should the value of p exceed 0.025. The stresses f~ and in t,
these expressions are in psi units. All reinforcement has to be continued through the
joint. At least two bars have to be continuously provided both at top and bottom.
5. Beams should have at least two of the longitudinal bars continued along both the top
and the bottom faces. These bars should be developed at the face of the support.
6. Columns having clear heighttomaximumplandimension ratio offive or less should
be designed in shear such that not less than the smaller of (a) and (b) :

for earthquake resistant design.
7. Where design forces have been magnified to account for overstrength of the vertical
elements of seismicforceresisting system, the limit of (Ag¡;110) should be changed
to (Ag J;/4) and the transverse reinforcement should extend into the discontinued
member for at least a distan ce Id of the largest longitudinal column bar required in the

Flexura/ considerations:
(a) Displacement-based Approach: For walls or piers continuous in cross section
from the base of the structure to the top of the wall and designed to have a single critical
section for flexure and axial loads, the compressive zones have to be reinforced with
boundary elements with a geometry defined as follows:
t;
(13.34a)
but that 8Jhw is taken not less than 0.007. The reinforcement has to extend vertically
along the wall a distance not less than the larger of lw or MJ4Vu from the critical section.
e = distance from the extreme compression fibers to the neutral axis computed
from the factored axial force and nominal moment strength.
hw = height of entire wall.
Bu = design displacement
(b) Stress-based Approach: This alternative design procedure requires that bound
ary elements in structural walls have to be provided whenever the extreme fiber
compressive stresses exceed 0.20 f ~. The boundary elements have to extend along
the vertical boundaries of the entire wall and around the edges of openings. They can
be discontinued where the computed compressive stress is less than 0.15 f~. The stresses
are computed for factored forces using a linearly elastic model and crosssection prop
erties.
It should be noted that when boundary elements are required, the wall is essentially
detailed in a similar manner in both approaches.
Shear considerations:
If the shear wall is subjected to factored inplane seismic shear forces Vuh >
Acv A Vf'c, then it should be reinforced with a reinforcement percentage Pv ~ 0.0025.
Spacing of the reinforcement each way should not exceed 18 in. center to center. If
Vuh < Acv A Vf'c,
the reinforcement percentage can be reduced to 0.0012 for No. 5 bars or
less in diameter and 0.0015 for larger deformed bar sizes. Reinforcement provided for
shear strength has to be continuous and distributed across the shear plane.
At least two curtains of reinforcement are needed in such a wall if the inplane fac
tored shear forces exceed a value of 2 Ac, A Vf'c.
where
Pi =AsJAcv
Acv = net area of concrete cross section = thickness x length of section in direc
tion of shear considered.
Asv = projection on Acv of area of distributed shear reinforcement crossing the
plane Acv·
The nominal shear strength Vn of structural walls and diaphragms of highrise buildings
with aspect ratio greater than 2 should not exceed the shear force computed from:
(13.34b)
where
Pn = ratio of distributed shear reinforcement of aplane perpendicular to the plane
of Acv·
For lowrise walls with aspect ratio hw/lw less than 2, the ACI Code requires that the
coefficient in Eq. 13.34b be increased linearly up to a value of 3 when the hwf lw ratio

Toe nominal flexural strengtb is determined considering the most critical factored axial
loads including earthquake effects. The maximum allowable nominal unit shear strength
in structural walls is 8Acv A Vt'c
where Acv is the total crosssectiona1 area (in.2) previ
ously defined and ¡; is in psi. However, the nominal shear strength of any one of the indi
vidual walJ piers can be permitted to bave a máximum value of 10 Acp A Vf'c,
where Acp is
the crosssectional area of tbe individual pier.
2. Coopling Beams:
Toe provisions for allowable sbear stresses in coupling beams are as follows. Cou
pling beams are strucrural elements connecting structural walls to provide additional
stiffness and energy dissipation. In man.y cases, geometrical limits result in coupling
beams whose depth to clear span ratio is high (Ref. 13.1. 13.2). Hence, they can be con
13.5 ACI Confining Reinforcements for Structural Concrete Members 857
(13.36a)
The values of all these ductility factors have to be considerably greater than 1.0 for in
elastic behavior to be sustainable. Ductility can effectively be achieved through adequate
confinement as stipulated in the ACI 318-08 code (Ref. 13.1) and the International Build-
ing Code, IBC 2009 (Ref. 13.2)
Due to large rotations, the structure at imposed locations reaches the limit ultimate
state through the development of plastic hinges. The plastic hinges generated by seismic
action would generally develop close to the side of the column since weak beamstrong
column design is generally used, as stipulated in ACI 318 (Ref. 13.1). For the plastic
hinge to develop in the beams rather than the columns of a multistory frame, special con
finements have to be provided over a beam's length ahead of the columns face, equal to
twice the beam depth. Figure 13.11 (a) and (b) schematically demonstrate the imposed
locations of the plastic hinges in monolithic construction.
Hence, the columns would be large enough to resist the design seismic forces while
the beams possess the required ductility to respond to the seismic strains imposed by the
earthquake. In the case of using precast ductile moment resisting frames, a hybrid con
nection can be used and proportioned by a capacitybased design. An example is the Dy
widag Ductile Assembly described in Section 13.7.2 ora dual system as in Section 13.7.5,
providing a large level of energy dissipation.

the frame that has to sustain Jarge seismically imposed deformations. Both reinforced
and monolithic prestressed concrete frames have been designed and built for sorne time
(Ref. 13.13, 13.14, 13.17).
Precast concrete, on the other hand, has traditionally been viewed as an assembly
of components tbat attempts to emulate a situcast structure. This approacb disregards
tbe advantages presented by tbe discrete elements that make up a total precast structure.
If, by design, a postyield deformation can be imposed to occur wbere precast elements
are joined, damage to tbe structure can be significantly reduced. This is because a weak
ened plane already exists at tbe point where a postyield rotation has to be accommo
dated. A monolithically cast element, on the other hand, must crack, usually along
severa/ planes, in order to accommodate the required rotation. Given this advantage, pre
cast concrete structures can be created capable of surviving earthquakes with lower lev
els of damage than tbose created from other materials or by otber processes.
The use of precast prestressed concrete elements in ductile frame construction is
coming of age. Extensive researcb is available to justify use of precast elements safely in
ductile beamcolumn frames in high seismicity zones (Ref. 13.1813.27). Figure 13.12

mild ( ductile) steel reinforcing bars at top and bottom of the beam and highstrength pre
stressing tendons at middepth of the beam. The mild steel is intended to dissipate the
seismic energy by yielding. The prestressing steel provides the shear resistance from the
friction developed by the prestressing force. The system is defined as hybrid because of
using two types of reinforcement.
The hybrid system is the evolution of an assemblage of precast concrete compo
nents by posttensioning that was first proposed in New Zealand in the early 1970s. Toe ?~
hybrid system was developed largely through an interactive test program (Ref. 13.17, '
13.22, 13.23). The objective of the tests performed was to improve upon the energy dis
sipation characteristics of assemblies connected exclusively by posttensioning (Ref.
13.24).
The basic objectives of the hybrid system are to mainly accomplish the following
results:
• Balance the restoring force provided by the concentric posttensioning with the
strength developed by the mild steel so that a restorative or selfcentering force ex
ists after the earthquake. This should reduce the potential for permanent deforma
tion.
• Maintain a strain state in the posttensioning reinforcement at the deformation
limit state that is within the elastic range lfps < 0.9 [p,,).
• Localize the postyield deformation so as to cause the postyield rotation to occur 1
·¡
along the interface between the beam and the column. This reduces the potential for l
nonstructural damage to the beam. !

Figure 13.13 (a) gives typical detailing of monolithic situcast reinforced concrete ductile ·¡
connection. Figure 13.13 (b) demonstrates typical details of the reinforcement in a hybrid
precast frame assembly.
The performance of the hybrid momentresisting beamcolumn connection has ¡
been thoroughly verified through tests in several centers of research as listed in the se
lected references. The crack widths in ali the specimens in both beams and columns were 1
very small, in the 0.04 in. range (Ref. 13.26). Research test results have demonstrated
that hybrid precast systems have the following performance capabilities:
(a) Can be designed to have the same flexura! strength as conventionally reinforced
systems.
(b) Have large drift capacity.
(e) Dissipate more energy than conventional systems up to 1.5 percent drift.
(d) Have concrete in the hybrid system that suffers negligible damage even if the drift
is in the range of 6%.
Figure 13.14 (a) demonstrates the narrow cracking pattern and negligible damage at 3.5
percent drift while Figure 13.14 (b) shows the contrasting behavior of the monolithically
cast assembly.
Additionally, studies on largescale prototype tests have been conducted by Pessiki
et al. on precast beamcolumn nonbonded posttensioned connections in ductile frames
under highseismic loading (Ref. 13.31). They demonstrate that such assemblages can
perform satisfactorily for frames on hard soil conditions. Their tests also indicate that dis
placement of the frames on medium or soft soil conditions in highseismicity regions are
difficult to reasonably estímate using elastic analysis under the equivalent lateral base
force code approach.

868 Chapter 13 Seismic Design of Prestressed Concrete Structures
Structural (shear) walls have been successfully used for more than 35 years. They
are essentially vertical cantilevers designed to receive lateral forces from diaphragms or
coupling beams and then transmit the forces to the ground. The forces in these walls may
often be predominantly shear forces for lowrise buildings. Slender walls will also un
dergo significant bending, mainly flexural stresses.
One of the main objectives of the structural analysis is to determine in what propor
tion the applied wind or seismic forces are distributed among the various shear walls. Far
the case where no ductile moment frames are present, one can assume that each floor di
aphragm displaces in its plane as a rigid body. In such an analysis, the magnitude of lat
eral displacement becomes the dominant factor in determining the proportion of loads
resisted by each wall.
If the wall is treated as a deep vertical beam cantilevering from the foundation,
shear deformations become a majar component of the displacement and have to be
taken into account. Based on the analysis by Aswad et al. in Ref. 13.28, it has been shown
that the "beam element" method including the shear deformations is quite accurate for
evaluating the shear and overturning moments in plan layouts with shear walls. Figure
13.18 shows the modes of failure of structural walls subjected to seismic lateral loading.

Ductile frames interacting with shear walls can provide a large level of energy dissipation
in a major earthquake. They would also significantly reduce the story drift and the devel
opment of pronounced hinges. Since the precast frame primarily deforms in shear due to
lateral loading and the wall deforms primarily in flexure with sorne shear deformations,
the combination of both types in a dual system can result in a more efficient structure.
Part of the lateral forces in such a system is allocated to the ductile frame. The
balance is assigned to the shear wall. In such dual systems, the walls can be either free
standing or connected to the frames by the floor diaphragms or by coupling beams which
are continuous beams in their planes connected to the abutting frames.
In all systems where nonbonded prestressing is used in highseismicity regions, it is
important that the actual stress in the prestressing reinforcement can achieve and sustain
the design ultimate stress level and beyond the yield strength level of 1.25 Ípy

twelvestory structure (adapted from Ref. 13.9) having a total height h.; = 148 ft (45 m) and
having equal spans of 22 ft ( 6.7 m). Except far the ground story, which is 16 ft ( 4.88 m) high,
ali other stories have 12 ft (3.67 m) heights. The total gravity factored load on the shear wall
is Wu = 4,800,000 lb (21.4 MN). The factored moment at the base of the wall due to seismic
loads from the lateral load analysis of the transverse frames is Mu = 554 x 106 in.lb

A precast structural (shear) wall for a fivestory building in a moderate seismicity zone is
b = 8 in. (203 mm) thick (Ref. 13.29). The length of the interior wall is 24 ft (7.32 m) and the
height of each story is 13' O'' (3.96 m). Structural analysis showed that the wall is subjected to
a factored seismic base shear force Vu = LF(V.) = 157.4 kips (582 kN) anda factored over
turning Case II base moment Mu = LF(M.) = 7114 ftkip (9645 kNm). The total weight of
each floor including attached masses is 2,400 kips (10,675 kN). Design the connection at the
base of the wall assuming that it is so reinforced that the neutral axis obtained by trial and
adjustment and strain compatibility analysis is e= 17.62 in. (447 mm). Use either welded con
nection as in Figure 13.21 having a rated capacity of 25 kips per connection (111 kN) or Dy
widag rods grade 150 ksi (1034 MPa) with thread bar couplers as in Fig. 13.20. Case I
factored overturning moment Mu= 6941 ftkip (9410 kNm).

Maximum allowable horizontal concrete shear interaction stress (sliding friction):
t.; = 1200 psi (8.2 MPa)

ACI load factors governing the design are:
Usually, Load Case II controls the majority of design cases for gravity walls. Use case
U for seismic effects. As given in the problem statement, computer analysis using strain com
patibility and tria! and adjustment for the reinforcement used in the wall (Ref. 13.29) gave
the following factored overturning moment:

Example 13.4
Designa typical ductile precast prestressed concrete momentresisting frame connection in a
thirtyninestory high rise building in a highintensity seismic zone with design data from
Ref. 3.21. Use the Dywidag ductile connector assembly (DDC) described in Section 13.7.2
and Figure 13.15, namely, 282 kips capacity per single assembly. The frame analysis output for
this connection gave a factored moment Mu= 1,150 ftkip (1559 kNm) anda postyield rotation
0P = 3.0 percent. The floors are posttensioned slabs with 200 psi stress limit in the slab concrete
at service. The 5 1/2 in. thick slab panels were 18 ft x 27 ft on the average, prestressed both ways.

Solution:
l. Determine nominal capacity of a double DDC connection.

As discussed in Sec. 13.6 and 13.7, it is important to note that a capacity-based ap-
proach is being used in order to develop the strength required along the seismic load
path.

Example13.5:
Design a typical momentresisting connection for the ductile frame building in Example 13.4
using a hybrid system as described in Section 13.7.1. Use both wellbonded mild reinforcing
bars at top and bottom of the frame beams with debonding at the column face and concentric
posttensioning steel reinforcement at their middepth. Given:
Solution: The design procedure in this example differs in that the beam width here <loes
not need to be a function of the hardware as is the case for the DDC in the previous example.
It is important to note in this example also that a capacity-based approach is used in order
to develop the strength required along the seismic load path.
l. Determine the amount of post-tensioning required.
The posttensioning should be capable of resisting about 60 percent of the moment
demand. The balance is to be resisted by the mild steel reinforcement.

It should be noted that the selection of the amount of posttensioning is fairly arbi
trary. The objective is to provide a restoring force (see design objectives) and satisfy
objective strength requirements. The designer may select a 17strand tendon or opt to
use a 19strand tendon. The latter will be used in this example since a 19strand tendon
anchorage is available and would be used for either choice. Also observe that post
tensioning strands are more cost effective than Grade 60 reinforcing when developed
as described in Figure 13.13(b ). The consequence associated with the use of propor
tionately higher amounts of posttensioning is the loss of sorne energy dissipation.

Check compressive stress on the concrete= PJAc
P, Tp, 656 .
Ac = Ag = 24(36) = 0.76 ksi
Note that the posttensioning stress level in the concrete should not exceed 1000 psi. This
is because stress compatibility with the other components of the structure will become
more of a problem and system shortening is likely to be excessive. In the building being
designed and used in this example (Ref. 13.21), the floor slab is posttensioned and the
level of effective posttensioning in the floor will be on the order of 200 psi ( or less ).

Hence, provide four No. 8 bars (As= 3.16 in.2/Mns = 474 ft.kips).
Available Tn, = 3.16 X 60 = 190 kips
3. Limit state at ultimate strength.
The original design guidelines for this construction system (Ref. 13.18) require that
the flexural overstrength (probable strength) provided by the mild steel be less than
13.15 Design of Precast Prestressed Ductile Frame Connection 897
that provided by the posttensioning steel. This provision is intended to produce the
objective of a selfrestoring bracing system. The mild steel reinforcing bars are
debonded at the beamcolumn interface as in Figure 13.28. This is because the precast
beam will tend to separate or "liftoff" the column, introducing large strains in the
mild steel in this region. The extent of the debonding determines the strain/stress in
duced in the mild steel when the deformation limit state is reached. It should be noted
that as the strain limit in the mild steel reinforcing bars is approached, their stress leve!
becomes on the order of approximately 105 ksi. The probable strain in the mild steel
would be comfortably less than the strain limit state at the deformation limit state.
Determine the mild steel stress ata postyield rotation of 3% (see stressstrain dia
gram in Figure 2.18 and Ref. 13.19). The unbonded mild steel length includes a region
of probable debonding of 2.75 db on either side of the intentionally debonded region.

13.1 A 3 x 18 panel ductile, momentresistant frame category11 siteclass B frame building has a ground
story 15 ft. high (4.6 m) and ten upper stories of equal height of 11'6" (3.5 m). Compute the seis
mic base shear V and the overturning moment at each story leve! in terms of the weight Ws of each
floor. Use the equivalent lateral force method in the solution. Given:
S1 = 0.34 sec, S, = 0.90 sec R = 5,
Ws per floor = 2400 kips (9560 kN)
13.2 A momentresisting ductile frame building is located in a highseismicintensity zone. The earth
quake forces are resisted equally as a dual system by the ductile frame and a monolithic reinforced
concrete shear wall over the total height of the building. The geometry of the structure is given
below. Design the shear wall assuming that the magnitude of the loads, forces and moments ap
plied to the wall are 110 percent of the values used in Ex. 13.2. Given:
floors have slabs of thickness h¡= 7 in. (178 mm)
clear beam spans in both longitudinal and transverse directions = 20'0" (6.1 m)
shear wall base length lw = 25 ft (39.6 m)
Problems for Solution 903
13.S Design the moment resisting connection in Problem 13.4 as a hybrid connection using both mild
steel and prestressing posttensioned reinforcement. Given:
¡; = 5000 psi, normal weight concrete (34.5 MPa)
