1.2.3 Contractor Designed Bracing
The Contractor shall design the bracing in accordance with UFC 3-310-04 and additional data furnished by the Contracting Officer. Resistance to lateral forces induced by earthquakes shall be accomplished without
SECTION 26 05 48.00 10 Page 1 consideration of friction resulting from gravity loads. UFC 3-310-04 uses parameters for the building, not for the equipment in the building;
therefore, corresponding adjustments to the formulas shall be required.
Loadings determined using UFC 3-310-04 are based on strength design;
therefore, AISC 325 shall be used for the design. The bracing for the electrical equipment and systems shall be developed by the Contractor.
1.2.4 Conduits Requiring No Special Seismic Restraints
Seismic restraints may be omitted from electrical conduit less than 2-1/2 inches trade size. All other interior conduit, shall be seismically protected as specified.
1.3 EQUIPMENT REQUIREMENTS
1.3.1 Rigidly Mounted Equipment
The following specific items of equipment: switchboards and transformers to be furnished under this contract shall be constructed and assembled to withstand the seismic forces specified in UFC 3-310-04. Each item of rigid electrical equipment shall be entirely located and rigidly attached on one side only of a building expansion joint. Piping, electrical conduit, etc., which cross the expansion joint shall be provided with flexible joints that are capable of accommodating displacements equal to the full width of the joint in both orthogonal directions.
1.4 SUBMITTALS
Government approval is required for submittals with a "G" designation;
submittals not having a "G" designation are for information only. When used, a designation following the "G" designation identifies the office that will review the submittal for the Government. Submit the following in accordance with Section 01 33 00 SUBMITTAL PROCEDURES:
