STRUCTURAL COMPONENTS. 1. Live loads: Entire office floor loading shall provide 100 pounds per square foot (minimum) live loads. Limit floor deflection to L/360. Do not reduce live load for horizontal framing members/columns or load bearing walls supporting top floor or roof.
2. Where required by the Request for Proposal (RFP), Program, or State Agency Supplementary Standards: provide special floor loading requirements for computer room loads, special equipment loads and storage loads.
3. Where required by the Request for Proposal (RFP), Program, or State Agency Supplementary Standards: Design 1 bay per floor for high density storage systems.
4. Non‐structural, rigid partitions shall be adequately supported so as not to become load bearing.
5. Masonry walls are to be isolated from floor above by a gap and restrained by either an intermittent or continuous steel angle on both sides at top of wall or steel straps extending in the wall grout.
6. Metal stud partitions do not require in‐plane lateral isolation from structure if the design story drift ratio multiplied by 3(R/8) is less than 0.0025.
7. Top of stud in full height walls is to be separated from the track. Use deflection tracks.
8. Building expansion is to be carried through crossing partitions.
9. Design Procedures for New Construction:
a) Load Resistance Factor Design (LRFD): Use for small or large building structures.
b) Allowable Stress Design (ASD): Use for small building structures only.
10. Progressive Collapse for New Construction:
a) Building is not to be subject to progressive collapse as defined by the building code.
b) Beam or slab failure shall not affect system below or in adjacent bays.
c) Column failure shall affect only the bays supported by that column
11. Drift for new construction: Lateral deflection of building under lateral load is to be limited to wind and earthquake requirements. Wind induced motion and sway must also be limited. Design roof massing and roof structure to prevent excessive drift and potential collapse.
12. Transient vibration induced by passing traffic or foot fall is to be minimized.
13. Corrosion Protection for new construction: Steel exposed to elements is to have a protective coating. For small isolated steel elements use either hot dipped galvanized zinc coating or coal tar epoxy. For larger exposed steel elements use a 2‐coat system:
a) Coat 1: organic zinc rich urethane or epoxy primer shop applied over blast cleaned surfaces.
b) Coat 2: field applied finish coat.
14. For conc...

STRUCTURAL COMPONENTS. In addition Landlord at its sole cost and expense shall remedy all defects in workmanship and materials in the Demised Premises with respect to the Structural Components of the Building, evidence of which shall appear or be discovered within sixty (60) months after the Commencement Date, and shall repair all damage to the Demised Premises caused thereby. For the purpose of this paragraph, this term Structural Components shall be limited to the structural steel framing including roof framing, the foundations, and the masonry perimeter walls (excluding all windows, plate glass, and doors). Landlord shall not be liable under this Section however unless Tenant shall give Landlord notice specifying such defects or the need for remedying them on or before the last day of the sixtieth (60th) month of the Term.
STRUCTURAL COMPONENTS. (A) A defined structural component shall not crack, bow, become distorted or deteriorate, such that it compromises the structural integrity of a home or the performance of a structural system of the home resulting in actual observable physical damage to a component of the home.
(B) If a structural component of a home cracks, bows, is distorted or deteriorates such that it results in actual observable physical damage to a component of the home, the builder shall take such action as is necessary to repair, reinforce or replace such structural component to restore the structural integrity of the home or the performance of the affected structural system.

STRUCTURAL COMPONENTS. During the verification of design strength, component stresses have to be determined. For the assessment of structural components no standardized rules are applicable. The finite element approach is commonly used for the strength verification. GL’s wind guideline describes requirements regarding finite element analyses. Once IEC 61400-4 is officially published it will include specifications using the finite element method with regard to structural components of gearboxes. The load bearing structural components in wind turbines are mostly made of large, complex shaped spheroidal graphite iron castings and steel fabrications. Due to the remote operation, conservative safety requirements and long life expectancy, a long crack initiation phase is necessary. Based on these general conditions, suitable and reliable fatigue analysis procedures have to be applied on the components to be investigated. A stress based analysis can be divided into two parts: the determination of stresses under fatigue loading and the determination of representative fatigue properties of the material under consideration. The life of a component is a function of these two aspects. Figure 5.2 shows a typical fatigue analysis procedure.

STRUCTURAL COMPONENTS. Landlord shall make, or cause to be made, all repairs and necessary replacements to the "structural components" (as hereinafter defined) of the Premises. For purposes of this Lease, the phrase "structural components" shall mean the exterior roof, exterior face of the exterior walls (excluding windows, window frames, doors and door frames) and foundation of the Premises. The cost of repairs and replacements to such structural components shall be the sole responsibility of Landlord except to the extent such costs arise as a result of any act or omission of Tenant or any person, firm or entity claiming by, through or under any of them, in which event, the cost therefor shall be paid by Tenant, as Additional Rent, within five (5) days after Landlord bills Tenant therefor from time to time.
