41、ttee of the Z21 Sub-committee on Standards for Gas Appliance Control Devices,which appointed anEarthquake ValveWorking Group in1978 toprepare a draft standard.The ensuing draft standard was distributed for review andcomment in mid-1979. A revised draft standard was adopted bythe American National St

42、andards Committee Z21 by letter ballotin December 1979. The rst edition of a standard for earthquakevalvesANSI/AGA Z21.70, Earthquake-Actuated AutomaticGas Shutoff Systemswas approved as an American NationalStandard by the American National Standards Institute on April16, 1981.In 1981, the secretari

43、at for the standard was transferred fromthe American Gas Association to the American Society ofMechanical Engineers (ASME). The ASME committee that wasassigned responsibility for the standard did not initiate anychanges. In 1991, a proposal was approved for the formationof a Pre-Standard Committee w

44、ithin the Gas and Liquid FuelLifelines Committee of the Technical Council on Lifeline Earth-quake Engineering (TCLEE) of the American Society of CivilEngineers (ASCE) to revise ANSI Z21.70.A full standard committee was formed in late 1992 and met forthe rst time in early 1993. The Committee was form

45、ed ofmanufacturing, engineering, local and state government, andinsurance representatives.The extensive data collected following the January 17, 1994,Northridge, California, Earthquake (hereafter referred to as theNorthridge Earthquake) provided a unique opportunity to assessthe risk posed to the pu

46、blic by natural gasrelated postearthquakeres and ground motions for which automatic gas shutoff wouldbe benecial. The Committee met in the months following theNorthridge Earthquake and nalized the scope of research need-ed to support development for a revised standard.The Committee focused its resea

47、rch on two key areas: (1)dynamic testing of current devices, which was needed to quantifyperformance characteristics; and (2) in-depth examination ofNorthridge Earthquake data on ground motions, structural dam-age, re initiation, and actuation of existing earthquake-actuatedautomatic gas shutoff dev

48、ices.A proposal to perform research in these two areas wasprepared for ASCE by the Committee, and the project wasjointly funded by FEMA, natural gas utilities, and shutoff-devicemanufacturers. The research project was initiated in March 1995and completed in November 1995.Performance characteristics

49、of the devices tested weredetermined and evaluated for both discrete dynamic loads andcomplexmotions(e.g.,simulated ground motions). Theresults ofthe dynamic testing of devices that were then on the marketbracketed the ranges that were used in dening the actuationrequirements in response to seismic disturbances.The second edition of the standard, ASCE 25-97, was pub-lished in 1999. The third edition of the standard, ASCE 25-06,was published in 2008. The present editionASCE 25-16,Earthquake-Actuated Automatic Gas Shutoff Devicesis thefourth edition of
