Nehrp Commentary On The Guidelines For The Seismic Rehabilitation of Buildings
Nehrp Commentary On The Guidelines For The Seismic Rehabilitation of Buildings
The Building Seismic Safety Council (BSSC) was established in 1979 under the auspices of the National Institute of
Building Sciences as an entirely new type of instrument for dealing with the complex regulatory, technical, social, and
economic issues involved in developing and promulgating building earthquake risk mitigation regulatory provisions
that are national in scope. By bringing together in the BSSC all of the needed expertise and all relevant public and
private interests, it was believed that issues related to the seismic safety of the built environment could be resolved and
jurisdictional problems overcome through authoritative guidance and assistance backed by a broad consensus.
The BSSC is an independent, voluntary membership body representing a wide variety of building community interests.
Its fundamental purpose is to enhance public safety by providing a national forum that fosters improved seismic safety
provisions for use by the building community in the planning, design, construction, regulation, and utilization of
buildings.
To fulfill its purpose, the BSSC: (1) promotes the development of seismic safety provisions suitable for use throughout
the United States; (2) recommends, encourages, and promotes the adoption of appropriate seismic safety provisions in
voluntary standards and model codes; (3) assesses progress in the implementation of such provisions by federal, state,
and local regulatory and construction agencies; (4) identifies opportunities for improving seismic safety regulations
and practices and encourages public and private organizations to effect such improvements; (5) promotes the
development of training and educational courses and materials for use by design professionals, builders, building
regulatory officials, elected officials, industry representatives, other members of the building community, and the
general public; (6) advises government bodies on their programs of research, development, and implementation; and
(7) periodically reviews and evaluates research findings, practices, and experience and makes recommendations for
incorporation into seismic design practices.

Foreword
The volume you are now holding in your hands, the
NEHRP Guidelines for the Seismic Rehabilitation of
Buildings, and its companion Commentary volume, are
the culminating manifestation of over 13 years of effort.
They contain systematic guidance enabling design
professionals to formulate effective and reliable
rehabilitation approaches that will limit the expected
earthquake damage to a specified range for a specified
level of ground shaking. This kind of guidance
applicable to all types of existing buildings and in all
parts of the country has never existed before.
Since 1984, when the Federal Emergency Management
Agency (FEMA) first began a program to address the
risk posed by seismically unsafe existing buildings, the
creation of these Guidelines has been the principal
target of FEMAs efforts. Prior preparatory steps,
however, were much needed, as was noted in the 1985
Action Plan developed at FEMAs request by the ABE
Joint Venture. These included the development of a
standard methodology for identifying at-risk buildings
quickly or in depth, a compendium of effective
rehabilitation techniques, and an identification of
societal implications of rehabilitation.
By 1990, this technical platform had been essentially
completed, and work could begin on these Guidelines.
The $8 million, seven-year project required the varied
talents of over 100 engineers, researchers and writers,
smoothly orchestrated by the Building Seismic Safety
Council (BSSC), overall manager of the project; the

Preface
In August 1991, the National Institute of Building
Sciences (NIBS) entered into a cooperative agreement
with the Federal Emergency Management Agency
(FEMA) for a comprehensive seven-year program
leading to the development of a set of nationally
applicable guidelines for the seismic rehabilitation of
existing buildings. Under this agreement, the Building
Seismic Safety Council (BSSC) served as program
manager with the American Society of Civil Engineers
(ASCE) and the Applied Technology Council (ATC)
working as subcontractors. Initially, FEMA provided
funding for a program definition activity designed to
generate the detailed work plan for the overall program.
The work plan was completed in April 1992 and in
September FEMA contracted with NIBS for the
remainder of the effort.
The major objectives of the project were to develop a
set of technically sound, nationally applicable
guidelines (with commentary) for the seismic
rehabilitation of buildings; develop building community
consensus regarding the guidelines; and develop the
basis of a plan for stimulating widespread acceptance
and application of the guidelines. The guidelines
documents produced as a result of this project are
expected to serve as a primary resource on the seismic
rehabilitation of buildings for the use of design
professionals, educators, model code and standards
organizations, and state and local building regulatory
personnel.
As noted above, the project work involved the ASCE
and ATC as subcontractors as well as groups of
volunteer experts and paid consultants. It was structured
to ensure that the technical guidelines writing effort
benefited from a broad section of considerations: the
results of completed and ongoing technical efforts and
research activities; societal issues; public policy
concerns; the recommendations presented in an earlier
FEMA-funded report on issues identification and
resolution; cost data on application of rehabilitation
procedures; reactions of potential users; and consensus
review by a broad spectrum of building community
interests. A special effort also was made to use the
results of the latest relevant research.
While overall management has been the responsibility
of the BSSC, responsibility for conduct of the specific

It should be noted that spectra generated using sitespecific procedures may not have well-defined constant
acceleration, constant velocity, and constant
displacement domains, although they will typically
resemble spectra that have these characteristics. For
such spectra, it is recommended that, at least for
consideration of first mode response, the effective value
of the response acceleration for very short periods be
taken as not less than that obtained at a period of 0.3
seconds, or that which would be derived by the general
procedure. Consideration could be given to using the
value of accelerations for very short period response
when evaluating the effect of higher modes of response.
The general response spectrum has been developed for
the case of 5%-damped response. A procedure is also
provided in the Guidelines for modifying this 5%damped spectrum for other effective damping ratios.
These modification factors are based on the
recommendations contained in Newmark and Hall
(1982) for median estimates of response, except that for
damping ratios of 30% and greater, more conservative
estimates have intentionally been used, consistent with
the approach adopted for seismic-isolated structures in
the 1994 NEHRP Provisions. Again, it is important to
note that structures may not respond with the same
effective damping when they are subjected to
impulsive-type motions, as they do when subjected to
the more typical random vibratory motions represented
by the general response spectrum.

The construction documents specify the construction
of details that are constructible, and specify the use
of materials and methods that can be readily
performed to attain the desired results.
These measures are not specified in the Guidelines, as
they are a function of individual design office practice.
However, they are an important part of any project.

Wrought iron and steel were more ductile than cast iron
and more easily worked, and a wide range of field and
shop modifications was possible.
These wrought iron and steel buildings had some
common attributes, but in general, the members and
connections were unique. Engineers made extensive use
of riveted built-up steel and wrought iron members with
riveted connections. The members were commonly
built up from plates, angles, and channels. These builtup members used tie plates and lacing, and the large
number of rivets made them labor-intensive.
Connections were formed with haunches, knee braces,
and large gusset plates. The first effort to standardize
the steel materials and shapes was made in about 1895,
but there was relatively little standardization in design.
Each engineer would use his own unique member and
connection configurations. Further, the design was
controlled by local practice and city building codes. As
a result, the predicted strength of the member varied
widely. An article published in the mid-1890s illustrates
this, noting that one column of a given material and
geometry could support 100 tons in New York City, 89
tons in Chicago, and only 79 tons in Boston. These local
building codes played a role in restricting the use of
wrought iron over steel in many cities, and this
contributed to the fuzzy transition between the two
materials.
The first proposed structural design specification for
steel buildings was published by ASCE (Schneider,
1905). This article examined the wide variation in
design loads and stress limits, and proposed a standard
design procedure, which began to become a reality with
the development of the AISC specification and design
manual in the 1920s.
While the members and connections were quite
variable, there was a lot of similarity in the general
structural aspects of these older buildings. First, they
usually had massive fire protection. Massivebut
lightly reinforcedconcrete was used in most buildings
constructed after 1900. The concrete was relatively
low-strength and often of questionable quality. In
addition, these buildings usually had unreinforced
masonry for outside walls, and unreinforced clay tile or
masonry partitions throughout the interior. These walls
and partitions provide the bulk of the strength and
stiffness of these older buildings for resisting lateral
loads. These buildings were normally designed for wind
load but not seismic loading. They were designed as
moment frames, with the tacit understanding that

B. Rehabilitation Measures for Deformation
Deficiencies
Within Component
When choosing rehabilitation measures, the
following compatibility requirements apply to
connections between new and existing components.
Built-up steel sectionsConsider the load
transfer mechanism between pieces of built-up
section (stitch or lacing plates) by welding,
bolting, or riveting as it affects strength and
stiffness, both elastic and cyclic.
Composite beam elementsConsider the
interaction of steel beam and concrete slab, the
load transfer mechanism (shear connectors or
puddle welds), and the effects of both on element
strength and stiffness, both elastic and cyclic.
Concrete encasementConsider the interaction
of concrete and steel, the load transfer
mechanism (friction or shear connectors), and the
effects of both on element strength and stiffness,
both elastic and cyclic.

NVL is the number of tensile connectors between the
angle and the column flange. The prying force may be
relieved, however, by tensile yielding of the connector.
Under these conditions, the tensile capacity of the

The plastic capacity of a link is governed by shearmoment interaction. For design purposes, the shear-
FEMA 274
5-29
Figure C5-20
Shear-Moment Interaction
5-30
For a short link, the web yields while the flanges remain
elastic. Therefore, the plastic capacity of a short link
does not depend upon the moment carried by the link,
and hence the shear capacity is QCE = Vn. A long link
yields through the formation of a plastic hinge. The
influence of the shear stresses on the yielding is so
small that they do not affect the strength of the link. As
the link yields, the forces tend to redistribute so that the
full plastic moment develops on both ends of the link.
Static equilibrium insists that V = 2Mp /e. Thus, the
shear capacity can be equivalently expressed as QCE =
2Mp /e. The smallest link length that can be considered
a long link is e = 2.6Mp /Vn. The shear capacity for a
link of this length is therefore QCE = 0.77Vn. The
capacity of a link of intermediate length is given by
linear interpolation between the limiting values of short
and long links; that is,

Q CE = 1.37 0.23 ------------- V CE

When a shear wall is assumed to be the only lateralload-resisting system and a space frame is provided to
carry most of the gravity load, the resulting structural
system is commonly referred to as a shear wall system.
In such systems the shear walls often form the perimeter
of an interior core that contains the elevator shaft and
stairways. In some cases the core walls will work in
combination with isolated walls that are distributed
around the perimeter of the building, to increase the
torsional stiffness of the building.
Where shear walls are combined with a space frame that
carries most of the gravity load and also assists in
resisting lateral loads, the structure is referred to as a
dual (wall-frame) system. Again, the most common use
for the shear walls in such a system would be to form an
interior core. Because of the different elastic
displacement modes for walls and frames, the dual
system offers significant stiffness benefits in the elastic
range of lateral loading. For inelastic lateral loading, the
frame offers a second line of defense, which provides
significant lateral stiffness and strength after initial
yielding at the base of the shear walls.
For any one of these three general structural systems,
shear walls that are in the same plane may be joined
together at each floor level with coupling beams to form
a coupled-wall system. As with a wall-frame system,
the coupled-wall system offers a significant increase in
lateral stiffness compared to the algebraic sum of lateral
stiffnesses of isolated shear walls. Under inelastic
lateral loadings, the coupling beams can provide
significant energy absorbtion if they are properly
detailed.
In bearing wall systems, the shear walls may have a
pattern of large openings in both the horizontal and
vertical directions. Such walls are commonly referred to
as either a framed-wall or a perforated-wall system.
Perforated walls are typically used along the exterior of
buildings to form a repetitive pattern of window
openings. The behavior of such a wall system is more
often dominated by the behavior of the individual
vertical and horizontal wall segments, than by the
overall proportions of the wall. The vertical wall
elements are commonly referred to as wall piers.
There is no common terminology for the horizontal wall
segments that resemble deep beams. For all the tables
presented in the Guidelines, the term wall segments
refers to both the horizontal and vertical members of a
perforated wall.

the test unit and the total grouted area. The term vto is
obtained by subtracting the apparent vertical
compressive stress from this ratio as given in
Equation 7-2. If the shear capacity of the masonry
exceeds that of the loading equipment, the test may be
run on one-half the length of a block. In such case, the
mortar bed joints along one-half the length of the block
are removed.
An alternate in-place shear test method is to
simultaneously apply a vertical compressive stress,
using hydraulic flat jacks placed in the bed joints above
and below the test brick, while shearing the test brick.
In-place shear tests are done at various levels of vertical
compressive stress so that values of cohesion and
frictional coefficients can be inferred.
The available standard In-Place Masonry Shear Tests
(UBC Standard 21-6), is referenced in the 1994
Uniform Code for Building Conservation (ICBO,
1994), Appendix Chapter 1, Sections A106(c)3 and
A107(b).
Default values for shear strength of URM are provided,
ranging from 27 psi for good condition to 13 psi for
poor condition. If in-place shear tests are done, the
upper bound of vme by Equation 7-1 is 37 psi for a zero
vertical compressive stress when the 100 psi limit on vte
is considered. Thus, a 37% increase in strength is
possible if testing is done and the masonry is considered
to be in good condition. Default values for shear
strength of poor masonry are large relative to values for
masonry in good condition (1:2), because frictional
shear can be developed even when mortar or units are
deteriorated.
Shear strength of reinforced masonry (RM) cannot be
expressed in terms of the bed-joint shear stress because
of the influence of the vertical and horizontal
reinforcement on shear strength. There are no in situ
methods for measuring shear strength of existing RM
walls. Equations given for shear strength in BSSC
(1995) must be relied on. Ideally, the theory of
mechanics of materials does not change with age, and
the same strength equations should apply for existing or
new construction. However, care should be taken to
ensure that the condition of the existing masonry
components is comparable to that of newly constructed
elements. This assessment should include a review of
reinforcing details as well as the general condition of
the masonry (see Section 7.3.3).

to 0.75 and 1.00 for these two levels. The Linear Static
Procedure (LSP) of Chapter 3 may be used with either
knowledge level, but the Nonlinear Static Procedure
(NSP) is limited to a factor equal to 1.0.
C7.4.1
The basic distinction between the two levels of
knowledge is whether or not in situ tests of masonry
materials are done. For the minimum level, a visual
examination of the structure is required per
Section 7.3.3.1; however, in-place testing is not
necessary. Thus, the LSP may be used with the default
values of material strengths as specified in
Section 7.3.2. For the comprehensive level of
knowledge, some in situ material testing is required in
addition to the nondestructive testing for condition
assessment noted in Section 7.3.3.2. These tests include
determination of masonry compressive strengths using
one of the methods prescribed in Section 7.3.2.1 for
both unreinforced and reinforced masonry. For
unreinforced masonry only, in-place shear strength tests
must be done in accordance with Section 7.3.2.4. For
reinforced masonry only, tensile strengths of reinforcing
bars must be determined in accordance with
Section 7.3.2.6.
Even for the comprehensive level of knowledge, in situ
tests of masonry flexural tensile strength or elastic
modulus are not required. This is because tensile
strength should be quite low and somewhat similar to
the default values as given in Section 7.3.2.3. Similarly,
test data for elastic modulus can have a large scatter and
not differ from the approximate value given in
Section 7.3.2.2 (550 times the masonry expected
compressive strength).

Nails have also evolved with time. The early nails were
hand wrought. Around 1800, cut nails with a
rectangular shank that tapers to a flat point were
commonly used. In about 1880 wire nails began
replacing the cut nails, but the use of cut nails continued
well into the twentieth century. Sampling nails of older
buildings can be helpful in establishing approximate
ages.
Wood frame walls with wood laths and plaster are
commonly found in older wood frame buildings, and
were used for interior partition walls of masonry and
concrete buildings. Ceilings are often found to be
constructed in a similar manner. Wood laths (a quarter
inch thick by one and a half inches wide) were nailed to
the studs or ceiling joist with one-quarter-inch spaces
between the boards. The plaster scratch coat was
applied and extruded through the space between the
laths, creating physical anchors to the laths. Brown and
finish coats were then applied. Over the years, the
knobs of plaster have often broken off and the plaster
has separated from the wood. Earthquakes often cause
sections of the plaster to delaminate from the laths.
Plaster ceilings become falling hazards and should be
evaluated and corrected as part of the rehabilitation
process. For structures constructed prior to 1825, these
wood laths are often short, hand split or riven sections
of wood that vary in width and thickness. After 1825,
the laths were typically manufactured in a mill,
resulting in visible circular saw markings. Normally, the
laths can be viewed from an attic space by looking at
the top side of the ceiling.
Older wood frame buildings were often constructed
without plans to show or detail the various conditions
and connections of the elements. The standard practice
and skill of the carpenter were relied upon to obtain
adequate connections. Generally, these older buildings
were not systematically designed for the effects of
lateral loads, but utilized conventional construction, and
were deemed to comply with requirements. Many

The behavior of the bearing for which the forcedisplacement loops are shown in Figure C9-5 is now
analytically constructed using the mechanical properties
at a shear strain of 1.0 and a bearing pressure of 7.0
MPa. These properties are Geff = 0.50 MPa and eff =
0.16. With the bonded area and total thickness of rubber
known, and assuming D y = 0.1 t , a bilinear
hysteretic model was defined and implemented in the
program 3D-BASIS. The simulated loops are shown in
Figure C9-7, where it may be observed that the
calculated hysteresis loop at shear strain of 1.0 agrees
well with the corresponding experimental hysteresis
loop. However, at lower peak shear strain the analytical
loops have a constant characteristic strength, whereas
the experimental loops have a characteristic strength
dependent on the shear strain amplitude. Nevertheless,
the analytical model will likely produce acceptable
results when the design parameters are based on the
mechanical properties at a strain corresponding to the
design displacement.

3. Calculate the modal viscous forces in each velocitydependent energy dissipation device using modal
relative displacements and modal frequencies.
4. For each mode of response, apply the calculated
modal viscous forces to the mathematical model of
the building at the points of attachment of the
devices and in directions consistent with the
corresponding mode shape of the building.
5. For each mode of response, apply the horizontal
inertia forces at each floor level of the building to
the mathematical model concurrently with the modal
viscous forces so that the horizontal displacement at
each floor level is zero.
6. Calculate the modal component actions resulting
from the application of the modal viscous and inertia
forces. Combine these actions using a modal
combination rule. This modal information would
correspond to the first-story column actions listed in
line 18 of Table C9-10.
7. Calculate modal component actions for checking at
the time of maximum acceleration as the linear
combination of component actions due to
displacement (step 2) multiplied by factor CF1 and
component actions due to viscous effects (step 6)
multiplied by factor CF2. For each mode of
response, factors CF1 and CF 2 should be calculated
using (a) the effective modal damping ratio, and (b)
Equations 9-31 and 9-32. The resulting modal
component actions should be combined by an
appropriate rule to calculate component actions for
design. Component actions for design shall equal or
exceed the component actions due to displacement.
This modal information would correspond to the
first-story column actions listed in lines 19 and 20 of
Table C9-10.
8. Calculate the component actions for design as the
maximum value of the component actions estimated
at the times of maximum drift, maximum velocity,
and maximum acceleration.
The acceptance criteria of Section 3.4.3 apply to
buildings incorporating energy dissipation devices.
Checking for displacement-controlled actions shall use
deformations corresponding to the target displacement
and maximum component forces. Checking for forcecontrolled actions shall use maximum component
actions determined in step 8 above. Evaluation of the

damping in the building. For effective damping equal to
0.42, and a first mode period of 1.19 second, the

structures that may be susceptible to excessive interstory drifts. The drifts calculated from the Quick Check
will be much smaller than the actual drifts caused by the
earthquake, since the calculations are based on the basic
equivalent lateral force procedure rather than the
expected accelerations and displacements of the
earthquake ground motion. The allowable drift values
in FEMA 178 (BSSC, 1992a) are intended to take this
into account. All buildings failing the Quick Check
should be fully analyzed, using the Systematic
Rehabilitation Method.
The Systematic Rehabilitation Method should be used
in tall and/or irregular buildings to make a more
accurate determination of inter-story drifts. (FEMA 178

It is very common for mezzanines to lack a lateralforce-resisting system. If the mezzanine lacks bracing
elements or is not adequately connected to walls or
framing capable of adequately bracing the mezzanine,
the mezzanine can be fully isolated and investigated as
a separate structure. Lateral-force-resisting elements
must be present in both directions to provide bracing.

Partitions
Definition and Scope
FEMA 274
Since partitions are both acceleration- and deformationsensitive, drift analysis is required for rehabilitating
partitions to meet or exceed the Life Safety
Performance Level, because partition in-plane
deformations must be known. For Immediate
Occupancy and Operational Performance Levels, all
partitions are candidates for rehabilitation. Noncritical
lightweight partitions may be treated as replaceable in
many instances where life safety is not an issue and
special detailing is not cost-beneficial.
Heavy infill partitions should be rehabilitated according
to the provisions of Chapter 7. Heavy free-standing
partitions that cannot meet the force and/or
displacement requirements of Section 11.7.4 will
probably need to be replaced with lightweight partition
materials.
Heavy partitions that can meet out-of-plane but not inplane requirements, because they act as infill, may be
rehabilitated by detailing that detaches the partitions
from the surrounding structure (provided the building
structure is not adversely affected by this measure). For
this method of rehabilitation, a detail must be
introduced that retains restraint against out-of-plane
movement of the partition, since it is no longer assisted
by support from the surrounding structure. Judgment
must be used to determine where lightweight partitions
should be detached from surrounding structure to
permit differential movement. Fire wall partitions
forming part of the building fire safety system that are
detached from the structure must be detailed
substantially to retain their fire separation capability.
