Sentence examples for serviceability level from inspiring English sources

The predicted wall deformation at the allowable bearing pressure of 200 kPa was within the serviceability level demonstrating an excellent load carrying capacity of the GR-SRW.

More than 80% of total energy exerted in the building is dissipated in the dampers for a serviceability level earthquake, and more than 50% for a safety level earthquake.

Significant repair costs can therefore be expected for comparable modern multi-storey structures following a serviceability level earthquake.

Comparisons between the experimental results of the initial and the serviceability-level section flexural stiffness and its corresponding values from literature and design specifications were also made.

Among the different methods, the AIJ standard was found to give the most suitable results for the initial section flexural stiffness and the serviceability-level section flexural stiffness of the current composite beams.

The service oriented architecture of grid computing has been thoughtfully engineered to achieve a service level virtualization: not only should a grid be a virtual machine (also known as a virtual organization, VO) of unbounded computational power and storage capacity, but also should the virtual machine be serviceable in all circumstances independent from serviceability of any of its component.

The damping ratio with amplitude-dependent behavior was found by the random decrement method, and the serviceability performance level for different return period was estimated for this tall building.

Since the design of an RC member for serviceability assumes that the stress of the reinforcement is in the linearly elastic range, Eq. (2) can be revised to Eq. (5), where f s denotes the reinforcement stress under the service-level loading (MPa) and E s is the elasticity modulus of reinforcement (MPa).

Maintenance and rehabilitation of these pavements to the desired level of serviceability is one of the challenging problems faced by pavement engineers and administration in the highway sector.

Based on the case studies, the design criteria of allowable tilt angles and penetration settlements of houses were proposed for the required level of serviceability against moderate and large earthquakes.
