REVIEW RESPONSIBILITIES Primary - Organization responsible for seismic and structural analysis reviews Secondary - None I. AREAS OF REVIEW The specific areas of review are as follows: For all seismic Category I structures, systems, and components (SSCs), the applicable seismic analysis methods (response spectrum analysis method, time history analysis method or equivalent static load analysis method) are reviewed. The manner in which the dynamic system analysis is performed, including the modeling of foundation torsion and overall building rocking and translation is reviewed. The modeling of soil-structure interaction (SSI) effects is reviewed. The method chosen for the determination of significant modes and an adequate number of discrete mass degrees of freedom is reviewed. The manner in which consideration is given in the seismic analysis to maximum relative displacements between supports is reviewed. In addition, other
