Acceleration response modification factors for nonstructural components attached to inelastic moment-resisting frame structures.

A statistical analysis of the peak acceleration demands for nonstructural components (NSCs) supported on a variety of stiff and flexible inelastic regular moment-resisting frame structures with periods from 0.3 to 3.0 s exposed to 40 far-field ground motions is presented. Peak component acceleration...
