ARC 4496 Hurricane Hazards • Wind • Storm Surge Flooding • Rainfall Flooding • Hazardous Materials
DOE-STD-1020 Natural Hazards • Wind • Flooding • Earthquake
Florida Building Code – Basic Wind Speeds and Windborne Debris Impact Regions
Probable Minimum Central Pressure Limit Estimate for Hurricanes; Source: K. Emanuel (1996)
Minimum Central Pressure to Wind Velocity Conversion • Source: Hurricanes and Typhoons: Past, Present and Future; Landsea, etal • 880 mb = 190 mph (232 mph, 3-sec gust) • 885 mb = 185 mph (226 mph, 3-sec gust) • 890 mb = 180 mph (220 mph, 3-sec gust) • 900 mb = 170 mph (208 mph, 3-sec gust) • 910 mb = 165 mph (202 mph, 3-sec gust)
Representative Wind Design Criteria • Applies to the EOC and essential ancillary structures and service equipment • Wind Load Design per ASCE 7 Standard • Load Factor Reductions per (draft) ICC 500 • Minimum Design Wind Speed = 190 mph, 3-second gust • Wind Importance Factor, I=1.00 • Exposure Category = C • Directionality Factor, Kd=1.00 • Internal Pressure Coefficient, GCpi= +0.18/-0.18
Representative Wind Design Criteria • The EOC designated as a threshold building, and special structural inspections required • Special inspections conducted in compliance with section 553.79, Florida Statutes and other applicable statutes, laws and rules
Representative Wind Design Criteria • Design Windborne Debris Missile = 15 lb 2x4 propelled at 50 mph (74 ft/sec) • Momentum = 34 lb-sec • Energy = 1,275 ft-lb • Design missile applies to all exterior enclosure components, claddings and assemblies (i.e., walls, roofs, louvers, windows, doors, etc.) • Design missile applies to enclosure surfaces located within 60 feet in height above finish grade
Representative Tornado Wind Design • Applies to the EOC and essential ancillary structures and service equipment • Wind Load Design per ASCE 7 Standard • Load Factor Reductions per FEMA 361 • Minimum Design Wind Speed = 200 mph, 3-second gust • Wind Importance Factor, I=1.00 • Exposure Category = C • Directionality Factor, Kd=1.00 • Internal Pressure Coefficient, GCpi= +0.55/-0.55 • Atmospheric Pressure Change (APC) or venting req’d
Representative Wind Design Criteria • The EOC designated as a threshold building, and special structural inspections required • Special inspections conducted in compliance with section 553.79, Florida Statutes and other applicable statutes, laws and rules
Representative Wind Design Criteria • Design Windborne Debris Missile = 15 lb 2x4 propelled at 100 mph (147 ft/sec) • Momentum = 68 lb-sec • Energy = 5,033 ft-lb • Design missile applies to all exterior enclosure components, claddings and assemblies (i.e., walls, roofs, louvers, windows, doors, etc.) • Design missile applies to enclosure surfaces located within 150 feet in height above finish grade
NOAA HMR No. 51 and No. 52Probable Maximum PrecipitationEstimates
Storm Surge Flooding • SLOSH Storm Surge Model • Category 5 inundation depth/elevation, NGVD • Maximum Envelope of Water • Margin of Error = +/- 20% • Category 5 elev. + 20% = Probable Maximum Inundation
Storm Surge Flooding • Fla. Performance Category 3 = Cat. 5 + 15% • Fla. Performance Category 4 = Cat. 5 + 20% • Performance suggested per county based on PC 4 (10,000-yr) Wind Map • Design wind speeds at coast that are greater than or equal to 190 mph (3-sec. gust) = Cat. 5 + 20% • Design wind speeds at coast that are less than 190 mph (3-sec. gust) = Cat. 5 + 15%
Representative Flood Design Criteria • Applies to lowest floor for the EOC and essential ancillary structures and service equipment • Finished Floor Elevation NGVD determined by: • Category 5 storm surge elev. + 20% • BFE + 3.0 feet • 500-yr elevation + 2.0 feet • Highest recorded flood elevation + 3.0 feet • Whichever flood elevation is highest
Representative Flood Design Criteria • The site (point maximum, one square mile) hydrologic design shall ensure that the EOC and essential ancillary structures and service equipment are not flooded due to a 24 hour, 37.0 inch rainfall event applied over a precedent 24 hour, 100-year rainfall event • Opinion of design professional is acceptable • Basin-wide analysis not required
Representative Flood Design Criteria • Where secondary (emergency) roof drains or scuppers are required by the Florida Building Code—Plumbing, the secondary system shall be sized for a rainfall rate of eleven (11.0) inches per hour
