Design Frequency Clause Samples
The Design Frequency clause defines the specific operational or performance frequency at which a system, component, or structure is intended to function optimally. In practice, this clause sets a clear benchmark for design engineers, such as specifying that a bridge must withstand vibrations up to a certain frequency or that electronic equipment must operate efficiently at a designated frequency range. By establishing these parameters, the clause ensures that the final product meets safety, reliability, and performance standards, thereby reducing the risk of failure due to unforeseen operational conditions.
Design Frequency. Major river crossings, bridges, culverts and storm drain systems shall be designed for the design-year frequency corresponding to the functional classification of the associated roadway. The functional classification for each roadway is shown in Section 11 in Book 2. Developer shall evaluate bridges for contraction scour and pier scour concerns and incorporate protection in accordance with Good Industry Practice. For interstate highways, the minimum overtopping flood to be used in the detailed design shall be the 50- year frequency.
Design Frequency. 10 The freeway that is part of the Project is designated as Class I route based on drainage 11 frequency classification by ADOT. Storm frequency and hydraulic requirements within Effective 12 FEMA Special Flood Hazard Zone must be in accordance with FEMA Code of Federal 13 Regulations (CFR) for the National Flood Insurance Program: 44 CFR Parts 60 and 65, EO 14 11988, and 23 CFR 650.
