Abstract
The issuance and widespread adoption of the current suite of U.S. codes and standards (2006 IBC, ASCE 7-05, ACI 318-05) addressing the anchorage of nonstructural components for earthquake forces raises several questions regarding requirements and expectations for the ductility of the anchorage. This presentation explores the implications of the current code requirements and offers a realistic assessment of what is achievable in the context of structural practice and anchor design.
