For the structural engineer, adopting this guide means delivering structures that are not just safe on paper, but safe for the 20-year lifecycle of the facility. For plant owners, specifying compliance with this guide reduces risk, extends equipment life, and prevents catastrophic failure. For plant owners, specifying compliance with this guide

The problem wasn't the vertical capacity of the columns. The columns were strong enough to hold the weight. The problem was the lack of lateral stiffness in the runway girder connection. The building was acting as a giant spring because the connections were too loose. The problem was the lack of lateral stiffness
