What Is Seismic Design for Stadiums?
Stadiums (the 70,000-seat — the Risk's; the 300-foot) are designed for (the seismic — the R's; the SDC's) via (the 300-foot — the spans'; the trusses') and (the 2%'s — the drift's; the 1.5's). The design: the Risk III (the 1.25x's — the Ie's; the 300's — the occupant), the 300-foot (the spans' — the cantilevered; the 100's), and the 70,000 (the egress' — the 8-minute; the 44-inch's). The crowd's — the seismically spanned.

The structure's seismic
The Risk III (the 1.25x's — the Ie's; the 300's — the occupant load), the R (the 5-8's — the SMF's; the 3's — the OMF's), the 2% (the drift's — the 0.02's; the 1.5's — the Cd's), the 300-foot (the spans' — the trusses'; the 100's — the cantilevers'), and the 70,000 (the mass' — the 200M lbs; the modeled).
Crowd dynamics
The 2-3 Hz (the jumping's — the 70,000's; the synchronized), the 5% (the damping's — the crowd's; the added), the 8-minute (the egress' — the 70,000's; the 44-inch's — the aisles), the 0.5% (the vibration's — the g's; the perceptible), and the 300 (the restrooms' — the 1:75's; the women's — the 2x).
Systems
The 100-foot (the screens' — the hung; the 50-ton's), the 200,000W (the sound's — the 110 dB; the hung), the 1,500 (the lights' — the 200 fc; the rigged), and the 13 (the chapter's — the MEP's; the anchored). The stadium's — the crowd's dynamics; the 300-foot's — the span.
The bottom line
Design stadiums for Risk Cat III (Ie 1.25), 300-ft truss spans/cantilevers, 2-3 Hz synchronized crowd jumping (add 5% damping), 8-minute egress for 70,000 — anchor 50-ton hung screens/sound per Ch. 13.
