Presents the analytical framework to develop a risk-informed approach to the design of nuclear structures under earthquake motions. Intended to complement ASCE 43, this standard addresses the seismic analysis of new and existing facilities. It provides criteria to develop calculated responses that have a specified likelihood of being exceeded conditional on the design basis earthquake shaking.

Focuses on the direct design of buried precast concrete pipe using standard installations, known as SIDD. The direct design method improves on indirect design, because direct design accounts for the soil pressure distribution around an installed pipe and provides a procedure for determining the pressure distribution coefficients for the standard installations.
