    Objective of ERI (Review)
     The main objective in seismic monitoring of structures thru ERIs (for
    buildings, dams, power plants, bridges etc.) is to facilitate response studies
    that lead to improved understanding of the dynamic behavior and
    potential for damage to structures under seismic loading.

     As a result of this understanding, design and construction practices can be


    modified so that future earthquake damage is minimized.
    Objective of ERI (Review)
     The significant implications are:

    (a) hazard reduction


    (b) improvement of codes
    (c) identification of seismic response characteristics of structural system
    that may be used in determination of strategies for improvement of
    their performances.
    (d) quick and sound post-earthquake response actions
    Basic Structural Response Records
     Accelerations
     Velocities
     Displacements
     Drifts

    Basis for the Guidelines and IRR
     National Structural Code of
    the Philippines (NSCP), 7th
    Edition, 2015

     DPWH Guidelines and


    Implementing Rules on
    Earthquake Recording
    Instrumentation for
    Buildings
    Location and Installation of ERI
    • The instrument shall be accessible to qualified technical personnel at all
    times and shall be unobstructed by room contents.
    • Provide a sign such as:
    “MAINTAIN CLEAR ACCESS TO THIS INSTRUMENT”
    • The preferred locations are in small, seldom used room or closets near a
    column, with adequate space to securely mount the instrument with
    protective enclosure attached securely to the floor.
    • The locations shall be marked on the submitted architectural and structural
    plans.
    Location and Installation of ERI
    For Buildings with Three (3) or More Instruments
     Instruments (accelerographs/accelerometers) shall be located in the ground
    floor/lowest basement, middle floor and topmost floor of the building.

    Orientation of the Instruments


     All instruments shall be installed with the same orientation relative to the
    building – the reference or long dimension of the instrument is aligned with
    the major axis of the building.
     Orientation shall be clearly marked on the submitted structural plans.
     The supplier/installer shall certify that the instrument are oriented as per
    plan.

    Data Retrieval and Interpretation
     Immediately after the occurrence of
    Intensity VI or greater earthquake
    as determined by PHIVOLCS, the
    building official shall issue a written
    notice to the building owner to
    retrieve the data.
     The retrieval and interpretation of
    data shall be performed by an
    accredited structural engineer.
    Data Retrieval and Interpretation

     The data and the interpretation shall


    be submitted by the building Owner
    to the DPWH for storage, post-
    earthquake safety evaluation of the
    building, and for emergency
    response.
    Data Storage and Archiving
     Data storage and archiving shall
    be at the DPWH Central Office
    and other Data Centers
    designated by DPWH.
     The ASEP shall be provided the
    said data upon written request to
    the DPWH.
    Certificate of Installation of ERI
     Upon compliance of building owners of these guidelines and IRR on ERI,
    the building official shall issue a Certificate of Installation of ERI.
     The certificate must be posted at the room/s where the instrument is
    located and in a conspicuous place, properly secured/protected, in the
    ground floor lobby of the building.
    Testing, Inspection, Commissioning
     Building Owner, Building Official, and Supplier shall inspect, test, and
    commission the seismic monitoring system together to ensure that the
    systems are in proper operational condition and comply with requirements
    of the guidelines.
     The Supplier must submit a certificate from the manufacturer that the
    instrument is in good working condition.
    Support and Maintenance
     The seismic monitoring system shall have a maintenance clearance as
    required by Section 105.6 of the NSCP, “Maintenance and service shall be
    provided by the owner of the building.”
     The Supplier shall provide guarantee that the system shall have a
    maintenance period for at least 10 years.
     For the service period, the maximum service interval is one (1) year.
     The equipment obsolescence shall not hinder the proper continuous
    operation of the equipment throughout the 10 years duration.
    Support and Maintenance
     The equipment obsolescence shall not hinder the proper continuous
    operation of the equipment throughout the 10 years duration.
     When there is a need to remove the instrument from the building for repair,
    a temporary service unit replacement must be provided to continue the
    collection of data, if and when there is occurrence of an earthquake during
    the duration of the repair.
