This document reviews 12 methods and criteria for the seismic analysis of piping systems. Each of the twelve sections (methods) covers the important technical aspects of a given method.The technical aspects presented are those the Subcommittee on Dynamic Stress Criteria believes important to the application of the method.There are many variables in an analysis of a piping system that can influence the selection of the analysis method and criteria to be applied.These variables include system configuration, technical issues, precedent, licensing considerations, and regulatory acceptance.They must all be considered in selecting the appropriate seismic analysis method and criteria.
