There are various piping systems in a hospital, with the most vulnerable being the sprinkler piping systems. During the 1999 Chi-chi earthquake and the 2010 Jia-xian earthquake in Taiwan, many sprinkler piping systems underwent large displacements and suffered collision with other overhead building elements. This led to leaks, medical equipment damage from water, and ceilings that had absorbed water collapsing in large areas. In these situations, hospitals cannot provide immediate first aid services and the post-earthquake resilience was reduced. Based on the damage state of the piping systems, a series of suspended piping system shaking table tests were performed to investigate the dynamic reactions and system ID with different retrofit components. |
