The reduced design spectral acceleration S aR (T), which is the ordinate of the reduced design acceleration spectrum for a given natural vibration period T , used to determine the reduced earthquake loads in the horizontal direction , is that of Sae (T) ,Horizontal Design Response Spectrum ,R (TA)'toDetailed Explanation (Appendix-4A) is obtained by dividing the Earthquake Load Reduction Coefficient.
On the Analysis Settings Wizard - Design Spectra tab, the spectral acceleration coefficients obtained from AFAD based on the coordinates and the horizontal elastic design spectrum Sae (T) are calculated according to the formula below . Horizontal Design Response Spectrum , it is represented by a total of 4 functions, different in each region, and shown with the graph below.
According to the carrier system type, using the R and D coefficients obtained from Table 4.1, R (Ta) is calculated as follows:
The reduced design spectral acceleration S aR (T) is represented by the graph:
