(Specify in 5.4.1) | | |Building Configuration-Horizontal |The building is regular with regards to the plan. (Specify in 5.4.2) | | |Roof Construction |The roof diaphragm is considered to be rigid and it is expected that the roof structure will maintain its integrity, i.e. shape and form, during an earthquake of intensity expected in this area. | | |Floor Construction |The floor diaphragm(s) are considered to be rigid and it is expected that the floor structure(s) will maintain its integrity during an earthquake of intensity expected in this area. | | |Foundation Performance |There is no evidence of excessive foundation movement (e.g. settlement) that would affect the integrity or performance of the structure in an earthquake. | | |Wall and Frame Structures-Redundancy |The number of lines of walls or frames in each principal direction is greater than or equal to 2. | | |Wall Proportions |Height-to-thickness ratio of the shear walls at each floor level is: Less than 25 (concrete walls); Less than 30 (reinforced masonry walls); Less than 13 (unreinforced masonry walls); | | |Foundation-Wall Connection |Vertical load-bearing elements (columns, walls) are attached to the foundations; concrete columns and walls are doweled into the foundation. | | |Wall-Roof Connections |Exterior walls are anchored for out-of-plane seismic effects at each diaphragm level with metal anchors or straps. | | |Wall Openings | | | |Quality of Building Materials |Quality of building materials is considered to be adequate per the requirements of national codes and standards (an estimate). | | |Quality of Workmanship |Quality of workmanship (based on visual inspection of a few typical buildings) is considered to be good (per local construction standards). | | |Maintenance |Buildings of this type are generally well maintained and there are no visible signs of deterioration of building elements (concrete, steel, timber). | | \\ **Additional comments on structural and architectural features for seismic resistance:** TEXT **Horizontal irregularities typically found in this construction type:** TEXT **Vertical irregularities typically found in this construction type:** TEXT **Seismic deficiency in walls:** TEXT **Earthquake-resilient features in walls:** TEXT **Seismic deficiency in frames:** TEXT **Earthquake-resilient features in frame:** TEXT **Seismic deficiency in roof and floors:** TEXT **Earthquake resilient features in roof and floors:** TEXT **Seismic deficiency in foundation:** TEXT **Earthquake-resilient features in foundation:** TEXT **Seismic** For information about how seismic vulnerability ratings were selected see the {{:seismic_vulnerability_rating.docx| Seismic Vulnerability Guidelines}} | ^ High vulnerabilty ^^ Medium vulnerability ^^ Low vulnerability ^| | |A |B |C |D |E |F | |Seismic vulnerability class | | | | | | | \\ **Additional comments section 5 ** TEXT |Insert image |Insert image | ---- \\ ===== 6.
