Full textVanligtvis består ett rörsystem av ett primärsystem, stora rör, och ett sekundärsystem, klena rör. Det primära systemet kan analyseras separat utan att ta hänsyn till det sekundära systemet. Men det är inte möjligt att analysera det sekundära systemet utan att ta hänsyn till det primära, eftersom det primära systemet påverkar rörelsen av det sekundära systemet. Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka möjligheten att analysera de små rören separat, och sedan om denna separation är möjligt, skapa och validera en metod som gör denna separation möjligt. Metoden responsspektrum används för att analysera strukturen. En grundacceleration spektra i tre riktningar tillämpas på den primära strukturen, sedan genereras ett nytt spektra med resultaten från analysen av den primära strukturen. Den beräknade responsspektra appliceras sedan på den sekundära strukturen. Resultaten från denna analys jämförs med resultaten från applicering av grundaccelerationen på den totala strukturen, när den primära och sekundära strukturen sitter ihop. Två olika grundaccelerationer appliceras på två olika modeller. Separationen kommer att tillåtas om resultaten av den sekundära strukturen är mer än 90% av resultaten från hela strukturen i alla delar av den sekundära strukturen i samtliga studerade fall. Resultaten efter separationen uppnår till mer än 100% av resultaten från analysen av hela strukturen, kallad för konservativa resultat, i tre fall men inte alla de studerade fallen. Separationen kommer att tillåtas i de tre fallen där resultaten når 90% av resultaten som tagits från hela strukturen, men inte i det fallet där resultaten inte når 90%.

Os resultados apresentados referem-se à investigação dos mecanismos de interação entre dois sistemas vitais às usinas nucleares, ou seja: os sistemas Principal (SP) e o Secundário (SS). Estes mecanismos são avaliados por meio de sua influência nos espectros de resposta, em pontos da estrutura passíveis da existência de suportes das linhas de tubulação - SS. São usados dois tipos diferentes de análises para a geração dos espectros de resposta: a primeira não considera a interação dos sistemas e a segunda avalia esta interação com a introdução, em cada ponto de suporte no SP, de um S1GL com suportes únicos ou com multi- suportes. As respostas estruturais são obtidas por integração direta da equação de movimento do sistema sujeito a dois acelerogramas simultâneos, nas direções horizontal e vertical. Os resultados são analisados e comparados para identificação das principais tendências das análises e esclarecimento dos efeitos envolvidos. Estuda-se, também, a importância de não- linearidades concentradas nos suportes da tubulação, tendo- se em vista o nível sísmico a que as centrais nucleares brasileiras estão sujeitas.
The results presented in this work refer to the investigation of the mechanics of the interaction between two important systems of nuclear power plants, i.e.: the Primary (PS) and Secondary (SS) systems. The influence of these effects on the response spectra is studied, in convenient points of the structure where could exist pipeline (SS) supports. Two different approaches are used to generate the response spectra: the first neglects the interaction between the two systems and the second considers this interaction by the addition, to every support point on the PS, of a single-supported or multi-supported SDOF system. The structural responses are obtained by the direct integration of the Primary System equations of motion subjected to two simultaneous design acceleration time-histories, in the horizontal and vertical directions. The results are analyzed and compared to identify the general trends of the solutions obtained by the two types of analysis, and to detect their effects on the SS response. The study is concerned, also, with the importance of nonlinearities concentrated in the pipeline supports; in the case of the Brazilian nuclear power plants.

Apresenta-se um estudo de avaliação dos critérios e métodos que são empregados atualmente na análise e projeto dos sistemas de tubulação nas usinas nucleares assim como a verificação da aplicação de alguns dos novos critérios apresentados pela comunidade técnico-científica internacional, dentro do método de análise modal-espectral. Estudam-se os tópicos da interação entre o sistema de tubulação e a estrutura que o suporta mediante o uso de espectros acoplados, a consideração do efeito do deslocamento relativo dos apoios da tubulação, usando-se espectros que o consideram ou uma excitação espectral múltipla, a introdução da combinação dos máximos modais dependendo da posição relativa das suas freqüências e a inclusão da resposta espectral correspondente aos modos de alta freqüência ou modos rígidos. A ferramenta básica de análise é constituída pelo programa computacional ANSYS. A avaliação é feita sobre parâmetros de esforços internos em trechos de um modelo de um sistema real de tubulações da usina nuclear brasileira, Angra 3. Os padrões são obtidos por análises no tempo de cada modelo sob o acelerograma de projeto. Conclusões são apresentadas sobre as atitudes mais convenientes para a atual conjuntura brasileira de projeto.
The main concern of this work is with the application of the modal spectral seismic analysis to secondary structural systems of nuclear power plants, with the large amount of conservatism which is included in them, and, of course, with the consequences to the particular case of the plants under construction in Brazil. One considers the design analysis methods which have been used so far in Brazil, as well as the most recent developments in the area, in USA and in Europe, to conclude about the adequacy of those procedures and recommend eventual changes to them. One then studies the subjects of the coupling effect between the primary and secondary system responses, the influence of the piping support relative displacements, the contribution of the cross-correlation among response modal components and the participation in the overall response of the so-called rigid modes. The main computer program aid is taken from an ANSYS-2 version and one uses a reduced model of a piping system as the secondary system and a 3-D beam element model of a reactor building as the primary system. The spectral analysis results are compared to time domain solutions using the same structural models excited by a design accelerogram. Conclusions and recommendations are oriented to the present design practice in Brazil.

Full textIn the chemical and petrochemical plants we can notice a big amount and complexity of pipings installeds, it happens due to the need to transfer and process fluids with differents pressures and temperatures and to get the operational requirements of production. A middle size petrochemical plant has among 3,000 to 15,000 tons of carbon steel pipings assembled so an adjusted sizing of these piping systems is very important. This study presents the main components, materials, design features and existing code procedures, especially under higher temperatures. It makes a comparative valuation about methods of structural solution to pipings and discussing previous concepts applied in the codes to improve these applications. In also, together a case study, presents a proposal of a methodology to sizing of pipings using Finity Element Analyse, with the goal to get a solution more safety, optimized and an economic project, in front of the large quantity of material involved in these installations.

Full textThis work is a formal analysis of the relative clauses’ construction in prepositional sintagms in oral cult Portuguese from Porto Alegre, in which the preposition is not visible in the phonetic form, in spite of the normative grammar requires it. Before accomplishing the analysis, we reminded the construction of the relative clauses, the relative pronouns with or without prepositions and some particularities and innovation of these constructions which are lighting up in BP, besides presenting the generative grammar view until the Principles and Parameters Model, singularizing the most relevant generative subjects about the construction of PP-Chopping. The analysis is based on data collected in 24 enquiries, corresponding to 24 informants registered in the corpus of the NURC project – Urban Cult Norma – which complete 300 periods of analysis. Following the model of generative research – Principles and Parameters –, the strategies standard – Pied-piping – and non-standard clauses´ construction are verified, and classificated in PP-Chopping and Resumptive Pronoun. The results show that the non-standard constructions are used in 69,33% of the cases, being 67,00% of PPChopping and 2,33% of Resumptive Pronouns, while the standard strategy is used in 30,67%. In the usage of the standard strategy, the use of the relative pronouns is assured, being a result of the element WH moviment, with the parameter fixing [+movWH]; while in the nonstandard strategies is tended the usage of “que”, called “juntor”, related to the fact that the subordinate clauses are governed to the main one by the conjuction. In this last case, WH does not result of movement [-movWH], being generated in the base position and characterizing that Brazilian Portuguese is a language of parameter [±movWH].

Full textIn earthquake engineering, it is common that the behaviour of a structure undergoing a strong motion is characterized by wise or narrow hysteresis loops depending on the type of behaviour of the structure. Considering this non-linear behaviour in a transient calculation requires a huge need of resources in terms of calculation time and memory. In this context, the method of equivalent linearization, consisting in the evaluation of the non-linear response of the structure has been introduced by geotechnical engineers In the 1970s. Despite efforts of many authors, this method is still not used in structural field. The goal of this research is to examine the linear equivalent behaviour in the context of the simplified method of evaluating the non-linear response of a structure in earthquake engineering. We review the criteria of equivalence adopted by many methods searching for the equivalence of (1) the maximum of displacement or (2) quantity of dissipated energy or (3) the restore force. Our argumentative analyses carry out that these three criteria are not pertinent and/or efficient. This leads, in some cases, to some unexplained results. We show the important role, which is mostly neglected in existing method, of frequency content while evaluating the ductile demand. Based on this recognition, we introduce a new method of equivalent linearization based on the transfer function. We use this method in order to explore a numerical experimental plan in which we calculate the equivalent characteristics (frequency and damping) versus the ductile demand for different configuration characterized by (a) the ratio between the frequency of the oscillator and the central frequency of the input signal, (b) the hardening and (c) the behaviour which covers the elastoplastic and damaged ones. We propose two new approaches of the linear equivalent behaviour. The first one, aiming to improve the non-linear static procedure of ATC40, use the secant stiffness and the maximal displacement. This approach consists in an estimation of damping which is different to ATC40. Its pertinence is established by evaluating with accuracy the maximal displacement of the canonical non-linear systems. The second approach consists in restitution of the dynamic of the response of a non-linear oscillator by using the transfer function. The pertinence of this proposition is shown through the criteria of Anderson, especially in terms of transferred motion. In this effect, the linear equivalent behaviour based on the transfer function allows to cope the transferred motion through the non-linear oscillator without performing the non-linear transient calculation. The validation of the linear equivalent behaviour based on the transfer function has been examined on real structures through some experimental tests such as the reinforced concrete wall (SAFE) or piping systems (BARC and EPRI)

Full textEscoamentos bifásicos gás-líquido são muito comuns em aplicações industriais, especialmente nas indústrias de petróleo e gás, química e nuclear. Conforme variam as condições operacionais tais como vazões das fases, dimensão das tubulações e propriedades físicas dos fluidos, ocorrem diferentes configurações geométricas conhecidas como padrões de escoamento. No caso da produção de petróleo, o padrão encontrado com maior frequência é o de golfadas, onde se alternam regiões contínuas de líquido (pistões) e regiões de preponderância gasosa (bolhas alongadas). Em operações de produção de petróleo em águas profundas é comum encontrar cenários onde a tubulação ajusta-se ao relevo do leito marinho, apresentando leves mudanças de direção. Nesse contexto, no presente trabalho é desenvolvido um estudo experimental do escoamento bifásico líquido-gás no padrão golfadas em um duto com leve mudança de direção, composto por um trecho horizontal seguido por um trecho inclinado descendente. São produzidos escoamentos em condições controladas, dos quais são extraídos alguns parâmetros característicos. Os fluidos usados são água e ar e os experimentos são realizados no circuito de testes presente no NUEM (Núcleo de Escoamentos Multifásicos da UTFPR). A extração dos parâmetros é feita através de sensores resistivos, instalados em quatro seções da tubulação. Adicionalmente, duas câmeras de alta taxa de aquisição de imagens são utilizadas. Com os resultados obtidos, avalia-se a influência de uma leve mudança de direção nos parâmetros característicos e na transição do escoamento em golfadas para estratificado na região descendente.
Gas-liquid two-phase flow is very common in industrial applications, especially in the oil and gas, chemical, and nuclear industries. As operating conditions change such as the flow rates of the phases, the pipe diameter and physical properties of the fluids, different configurations called flow patterns take place. In the case of oil production, the most frequent pattern found is slug flow, in which continuous liquid plugs (liquid slugs) and gas-dominated regions (elongated bubbles) alternate. Offshore scenarios where the pipe lies onto the seabed with slight changes of direction are extremely common. With those scenarios and issues in mind, this work presents an experimental study of two-phase gas-liquid slug flows in a duct with a slight change of direction, represented by a horizontal section followed by a downward sloping pipe stretch. The experiments were carried out at NUEM (Núcleo de Escoamentos Multifásicos UTFPR). The flow initiated and developed under controlled conditions and their characteristic parameters were measured with resistive sensors installed at four pipe sections. Two high-speed cameras were also used. With the measured results, it was evaluated the influence of a slight direction change on the slug flow structures and on the transition between slug flow and stratified flow in the downward section.

Abstract This paper is to design and analyze the pipe system for fluid transfer. By using paint circulation system in automotive paint shop as the example, we can analyze the pressure and flow volume of multi-outlet piping network. Base on the law of the conservation of mass, the law of the conservation of energy and Dracy Weisbach Formula. We calculate the friction and pressure loss caused by pipe material and accessory. In further, we develop software to design and analyze the pipe network of paint circulation system. We design and establish the software of piping system to check which are different between reality and simulation. After adjust influence factor, the software get modify numbers to match user requirement. According to the experience, we find dynamic loss from pipe accessory is the key factor to affect flow volume and pressure. The reason is construction quality varied. Therefore, the construction quality must be controlled properly to make sure fluid transfer uniformly.

Piping system design mainly divides calculating head loss of conduits between choosing motive power. This study use hypothetical fuel supply system to proceed to the flow rate experiment, to estimate unknown flow rate of circuit by iteration, and to simulate the piping system by HyPneu. We compare to experimentation, estimation, and simulation each other, and we analysis the relationship of every conduit design methods to know the discrepancy piping design by software between real situation. We can understand to the result of piping system simulating by software is close to the one of circuit iteration and has just a little difference to the one of experiment, and we can get important reference basis of piping design. On the other hand, we use pump characteristic curve and system impendence curve to solve working point of the smallest pump efficiency. We discuss the efficiency of pump parallel connection to obtain the parameter of piping system design, too.

According to the concept of the performance design, the damage caused by earthquake will not necessary result in the damage to the structure. However, the earthquake disaster will cause the non-structural instruments break. The break of the fire protection sprinkler system will result in death, the working error of the medical equipment and even the expense on repairing the equipment. Therefore, evaluating the seismic design of the fire protection sprinkler system to the performance design level is extraordinary. The common failures of the fire protection sprinkler system are from the damage of the threaded joint leading to the leakage of the pipe water, or the collapse of the ceiling. The research expecting to conduct the non-structural fragility curves in the hospital. And take NTU hospital Yunlin branch as an example to demonstrate a fragility analysis procedure. The abstract of each chapter in the research are: 1. The ambient vibration test in the case hospital: Use the velocimeters to conduct the ambient vibration test to clarify the characteristics of the structure. 2. The simplified numerical model of the fire protection sprinkler system in the case hospital: Use the numerical analysis software SAP2000 v.15 to build the piping system in the hospital. And suggest the parameter of the threaded joint, partition wall and the ceiling. 3.

The safety of pipelines distributed in the infrastructure of many industries has become very important since the industrial revolution. The guided ultrasonic wave technique can provide the possibility for rapid screening in long pipelines with corrosion. Especially the torsional mode T(0,1) of guided waves has been used in the cases of the pipe in the hidden region substantially. The ability of evaluating the inaccessible areas of the pipe makes the guided ultrasonic wave technique sit high on the roster of non-destructive testing tool for pipe inspection. However, the problem arises when attempting to detect the corrosions at the welded support bracket or under the bitumen coating on the pipe. The signal reflected from the corrosion will be covered by a large signal induced by the welded support or attenuated by the bitumen coating seriously. Therefore, the effects of welded support and bitumen coating on the T(0,1) mode are investigated by the experimental and the simulative methods. The continuous wavelet transform analysis is the signal processing method to extract the hidden signal of corrosion in this dissertation. There are five test pipes in the experiments. The response of the normal welded support is studied on the #1 test pipe. The #2 test pipe is used for attenuation investigation. The reflected signals of the features on the #3, #4, and #5 test pipes are measured and processed by continuous wavelet transform during defect detection process. In addition, the linear hexahedron elements are used to build the finite element models of the 6-inch steel pipe with support bracket and the pipe with bitumen coating. It is found that the effects of support bracket on the reflection comprise mode conversion, delayed appearance, trailing echoes, and frequency dependent behavior. When the T(0,1) mode impinges on to the support bracket, it will convert into the A0 mode inside the support due to the circumferential disturbance on the pipe surface. The reflection of the support bracket is identified as three parts formed by the direct echo, delayed echo and the trailing echo. The constructive interference of the A0 mode reflecting from the boundaries inside the support causes that the reflection spectrum shows two maxima peak at around 20-22 kHz (frequency regime of 0.0) and 32-34 kHz (frequency regime of 4.0) from both the experimental and simulated results. For the bitumen coating, the data collected from the welds and defects under the bitumen coating on the #2 test pipe show the attenuation effect on guided wave propagation and the difficulty of minor corrosion detection. In the finite element model of coated pipe, the results of predicted attenuation curves of T(0,1) mode indicate that the attenuation effect on guided wave propagation is aggravated with the increased value of the thickness, density or damping factor of the coated layer. Especially, in the case of 5-mm, the predicted attenuation curve shows a maximum point. Before this point, the attenuation increases with the operating frequency. For long range pipe inspection, it is the best way to avoid choosing the operating frequency around the corresponding frequency of the point. The measured data of corrosion affected by the welded support or the coated bitumen layer was processed by continuous wavelet transform to form a time-frequency analysis. The corrosion signals were identified in the contour map of the wavelet coefficient successfully. The understanding of the guided wave propagation on the pipe welded with support or pipe coated with bitumen is helpful to interpret the reflected signals. The use of continuous wavelet transform on signal processing techniques can improve the ability of defect detection on pipe with complex geometries.

The Residual Heat Removal (RHR) piping system is one of the most important systems in a nuclear power plant. It is used to provide emergency cooling water to protect the reactor core from high temperature damage during severe accidents. Its strength has therefore to be guaranteed. In order to reduce the accidental risk of power plants, especially owing to strong earthquakes, it is essential to investigate the mechanics behavior of the RHR piping system. This study is divided into two parts. In the first part, both the component test and system test are carried out to investigate the failure modes and mechanics behavior of the RHR piping system. In addition, to confirm the piping system meets the requirements of ASME design code when it is subjected to large earthquakes. In the second part, finite element method is employed for numerical analysis. The numerical models for both the flange joints and the piping system were established and verified according to the experimental results. Furthermore, a simplified model of the flange joints is proposed in this study. By comparing numerical results with the experimental results, it is concluded that all models proposed in this study predict the experimental results reasonably well. In particular, comparing to the original model of the flange joint, the simplified model effectively reduces 70% of the calculation time.

Piping systems are used to carry gas and liquid medium, the pipes are often connected to each other by welding or flange joints in the same or different directions with fittings and valves, building up the piping systems. To make sure the piping system working properly, we should avoid the failure modes such as damage、leakage and so on happened, especially for those in the connected joints. Piping systems are usually used to transport the steam driving the turbine or the water in the cooling units. The Residual Heat Removal (RHR) piping system is one of the most important systems in a power plant, composed of heat exchangers 、valves and primary the piping systems. When the power plant is under emergency condition, the systems mentioned will supply the emergency cooling water to make sure the core components won’t be damaged due to high temperature. In order to avoid the failure modes such as damage、leakage, and so on happened, we should make sure the pipelines especially for those within the joint are strong enough to function normally under seismic condition. In this thesis, we study the loosening mechanism in the case of RHR-C loop in power plant, and focus on how the plastic deformation on the gasket will lead to loosening of the clamping force of the bolts. By setting the zero clamping force as the index of failure, discuss if the allowable moment of flange joints defined by ASME B&PV Code is applicable for this case. This study is divided into two parts. In the first part, we found that the leakage phenomenon happened in the quasi static test of RHR pipeline. Then, a simplified component test is going to examine all the components in the flange joint. After finding that the gasket is the most critical component by a comparison test, we study the mechanism between the deformation and loading on it. After then, by taking the experimental data into the FEM input and creating the numerical model of those pipeline in experiments. By comparing the FEM results and the experiment data measured, we can make sure that the deformation behavior of the gasket accounts for the loosening in clamping force of the bolts. We build the piping system taking the gasket behavior into account, and setting both static and dynamic analysis. By comparing the results of the analysis and experiment data, it is concluded that the analysis is fitting reasonably well. By the end of the study, we’ll make an analysis to predict if the ASME piping PV code is suitable for this case.

Full textThis study is a numerical investigation into the behaviour of cracks in uPVC pipes under pressure. This study is a continuation of a Masters dissertation which showed that leakage exponents vary significantly from the theoretical orifice exponent of 0.5 for cracks in pipes for different materials. This study looks at the behaviour of cracks in more detail and specifically with regard to the parameters of the pipe and crack. Using Finite Element Analysis the relationship between the pressure head and the leak area in pipes with longitudinal, spiral and circumferential cracks was investigated. It was found that the longitudinal, spiral and circumferential crack areas increase linearly with pressure. The slope of this linear relationship depends on various parameters, including loading state, pipe dimensions and pipe material properties. The effect that the individual pipe parameters had on the pressure-area slope was investigated. These parameters included the material properties of the pipe (Young’s modulus, Poisson’s ratio and longitudinal stress), the geometry of the pipe (internal diameter and wall thickness) as well as the geometry of the crack (length of the crack and the width of the crack). Once the effect of the pressure-area slope m is known, the link between the conventional leakage exponent N1 and the pressure-area slope m was further investigated and the effect of each parameter on the leakage exponent N1 was found. Using various data techniques the above data was combined and processed to find mathematical relationships that give reasonable descriptions of the pressure-area slopes of longitudinal, spiral and circumferential cracks. Once these equations for the pressure-area slopes were determined it was possible to obtain three new relationships for leakage from longitudinal, spiral and circumferential cracks.

A probabilistic failure analysis model for the prediction of life and failure probability of a piping system or its components is proposed in the present study. The model incorporates probability and statistical theories into material failure criteria by considering parameters that can affect the propagation of the crack as random and evaluate the failure probability of the pipe. By comparing the results of some numerical examples with those from running the well-known PRAISE Code, it indicates that the proposed model possess a rather good prediction capacity, and in the degree of analysis and calculation time. Based on similar theories, this simpler model can be extended to make a more realistic analysis of a nuclear pipe weld having known initial crack size. The result of the above probabilistic failure analysis model can also be used in combination with that of the probabilistic risk assessment model. Risk-based preventive maintenance policies for piping systems of either boiling water reactors or pressurized water reactors can therefore be developed. The major concept is to quantify the likely risks existing in the piping systems in order to distinguish their individual importance according to the risk significances of the systems. Based on the degree of importance, the extent and period of plant maintenance can be adjusted rationally. The results of the numerical analysis suggest that the risk-based preventive maintenance policy developed in the present study does have the dual advantages of reducing maintenance cost and still preserving the required plant safety.

The residual heat removal (RHR) is one of the systems of the emergency core cooling system (ECCS). When the loss of coolant accident (LOCA) happens, the high pressure water injection system cannot maintain the water level in reactor and will activate low pressure water injection system - residual heat removal system (RHR) in order to supply the cooling water for reactor to maintain the water level. The purpose is to remove the residual heat generated by the reactor core and avoid the hazard induced due to high core temperature. According to the final safety analysis report of the sample nuclear power plant (NPP), in the accident sequence that has the greatest contribution to inducing reactor core meltdown, the ac-independent water addition system (ACIWA) is the main cause. In addition, in the ACIWA system, risk achievement worth (RAW) of rupture of the RHR piping is the highest among all components in NPP. Therefore, this dissertation takes the RHR piping in the ACIWA system of the sample NPP as the research object. Firstly, the finite element software ABAQUS is used to analyze the flange joints in the RHR piping, which are more complicated in analysis procedure and may cause liquid leakage in the piping. Then the results of 4-point bending test are used to verify the correctness of the flange joint model. This joint is further used in the RHR piping system shaking table model, and the correctness of the model is verified by shaking table test. The ultimate goal of this dissertation is to establish the fragility curve of the RHR system and discuss the variables supposed to be considered and how to select them in the fragility analysis method proposed by Reed and Kennedy. Combined with the numerical model analysis results, the fragility curve is finally drawn, which serves as the reference for seismic probabilistic risk assessment (SPRA).. The analysis results show that the RHR piping system in the sample NPP has good seismic performance, and the probability of damage caused by earthquakes is very low, which is not a key equipment affecting the safety of sample NPP.

Based on the popularization of performance design concepts for structures of critical building (e.g. hospitals and schools) in recent years, non-structural seismic damages (e.g. sprinkler piping systems) are more common than structural ones. Fire protection sprinkler systems plays important roles to prevent fire disasters and ensure occupant safety.However, failure of fire protection sprinkler system will result in not only threat to occupant safety but also the shut down of medical function and relating expense on repairing. Therefore, an accurate assessment method to evaluate the seismic ability of fire protection system is necessary. The common seismic failures resulted from fire protection sprinkler systems are impact damages of ceiling boards, leakages of 1″threaded joints and breaks of hangers. In order to understand the seismic ability of components mentioned above, this research propose several assessment methods and take NTU Hospital Yunlin branch as an example to conduct the fragility analysis of the component in fire protection sprinkler system. The main results are briefly described below: 1. Performance design method for piping systems: Referring to FEMA P58[1], only when building structures are judged as reparable will assessment of sprinkler piping be meaningful. Therefore, in this study, seismic performance of sprinkler piping will be evaluated only when the structure is reparable. 2. In order to investigate the effects of characteristics of input motion on the fragility analysis of piping systems, a nonlinear numerical model was established using MIDAS software for the RC structure of the example hospital building. 3. A detailed numerical model of the horizontal sprinkler piping system was established using SAP2000 software to simulate nonlinear behaviors of hangers and the nonlinear relationship between piping and ceiling systems or partition walls (Method A). The fragility parameters of three seismic performance of piping system were than obtained through incremental dynamic analyses. 4. According to the dynamic characteristics of the sprinkler piping system, a partial detailed analysis method (Method B) and a simplified assessment method (Method C) are proposed in this study. Comparing to the result of Method A, the one of Method B is more conservative but through a more efficient process. Method C is provided to be engineers an additional choice that a rapid but rough judgment in the seismic performances of sprinkler piping systems can be made based on in-situ observations and the floor response spectrum. The fragility results of Method C are very close to those of Method B in terms of median values but are with quite low divergence.

This research integrates FMEA and QFD and applies them into the straight pipe prefabrication of the piping construction for the case company. This is to investigate the possible failure modes and customer’s requirements for the pipe prefabrication process. The outcome from the appropriately designed questionnaire will be summarized, calculated for the RPN of FMEA and quality weighted index of QFD and adjusted to the process appraisal weights. The importance of these failure modes then can be prioritizing by the value of the process appraisal weights and resolve accordingly. The result can help the pipe prefabrication personnel discover and resolve the defect factors in the pipe prefabrication process in advance, reduce the loss, and improve the construction quality. Case company should actively adopt FMEA and QFD to ensure the quality of piping construction and meet the requirements of customers. After the adoption, case company should have the results of reducing the costs of equipment, materials, and manpower costs, reducing the complaints from the customers, increasing the passing rate of the straight pipe prefabrication X ray inspection, shortening the duration of the construction, increasing satisfaction with the quality of construction, and increasing the opportunity to obtain future construction contract. Other than the use of FMEA and QFD, future research may use other multi-attribute decision making method. Through different calculation methods, the outcome may be different form the one obtained from the FMEA and QFD and thus make it more objective and reliable.
