Abstract

A steel structure in a nuclear power plant is typically constructed next to major safety-related structures. Accordingly, the structural integrity of the steel structure must be achieved until the safety-related building is damaged by external forces. Consequently, the steel structure should have seismic capacity while maintaining the structural integrity of the surrounding safety-related structure. An optimized method for the seismic capacity against the beyond design earthquake was developed to reflect this capacity concept.
