Distinctive Aspects
“Buildings: Life Safety for People”
“Non-Buildings: Continuity of Operation in Industry“

Continuity of Operation in Industry
Non-interruption of essential processes and services
Prevent or minimize the standstill of operations
Enable the inspection and repair of damaged elements
![Page 6: BACKWARD SEISMIC ANALYSIS OF STEEL TANKS](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012013/6158961a8bd3761b934b750c/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Relevant Aspects
In the last earthquakes is not satisfied the continuity of
operation
Frequent shutdowns in oil plants
Most structures are designed with codes
Is no time for repairs after earthquake
Design codes do not serve their purpose
![Page 7: BACKWARD SEISMIC ANALYSIS OF STEEL TANKS](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012013/6158961a8bd3761b934b750c/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Mainly used in petrochemical plants and other
industrial facilities
Irregular distribution of mass in height
Different values of damping according to seismic mass
type (impulsive and convective)
Tanks Category
Self-supporting structure (not anchored)
Gravity loads be required to resist effects of
earthquake

It is necessary a better understanding of seismic
response to improve existing code

anchored mostly
Comments
High levels of seismic energy at few asperities on the
subduction plate
Proposed formula to estimate displacement Sliding of
Tanks

CONCLUSIONS
![Page 36: BACKWARD SEISMIC ANALYSIS OF STEEL TANKS](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012013/6158961a8bd3761b934b750c/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Backward analysis of tanks located in coastal areas
Studies of three large Chilean subduction interplate
earthquake
Proposition of the formula for horizontal sliding of
self-anchored tanks
Large sliding are due to ground coeseismic
displacement measured by GPS in coastal áreas
Conclusions
![Page 37: BACKWARD SEISMIC ANALYSIS OF STEEL TANKS](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012013/6158961a8bd3761b934b750c/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
The sliding in subduction earthquake is almost in the
direction perpendicular to the coast or convergence of
the subducted plate
Requires anchored tanks solutions, despite their
geometry
Observed tanks functioned satisfactorily according to
Chilean code NCh2369.Of2003
Using of anchors (uplift) and shear keys (sliding)
Conclusions
