If the HSS is just on grade level I would look towards rigid non-building structures, if it is similar toa frame I would look to Table 15.4-1
It is kind of a frame system. It is like 3 panels supported by like...
Hi, I have an electrical panel that is attached to the ground and is just elevated by some HSS so the weight of the panel is greater than the HSS. According to ASCE 7-22 13.2.9, if the effective seismic weight of the nonstructural component (panel) is more than 20% of the combined nonstructural...

Hi,
