A Five Story R.C.C Building With The Following Information Have to Be Analysis For Seismic Loading.
Given Data
Site Class C Typical Floors Dead Load (psf)
Building Occupation Category I Roof Dead Load (psf)
Number of Stories 5 Partition Load (psf)
Typical Story Height (m) 3.1 Snow Load (kpa) 1
Long Transition Period (sec) 3 Live Load (kpa) 1.92
Exterior Wall Dead Load (psf) SS (g) 1.2 S1 (g) 0.6
1. Compute The Shear Vertical Distribution Force
2. Compute The Story Shear and Overturning
Moment
3. OTM For any Missed Data Assume Properly
Compute The Shear Vertical Distribution Force
Determine SMS and SM1
Formula Unit
SMS = Fa . SS g
Fa Ss g
1 1.2 g
Result 1.2
Formula Unit
SMS = FV . S1 g
FV S1 g
1.3 0.6 g
Result 0.78
Determine SDS and SD1
Formula Unit
SD1 = 2/3 . SM1 g
SM1 g
2/3 0.78 g
Result 0.52
Formula Unit
SDS = 2/3 . SMS g
SMS g
2/3 1.2 g
Result 0.80
Seismic Design category for SD1 is D and for SDS is D. Therefore, The S.D.C is D
Determine The Analysing Method
Any Method can be applied in this Assignment, we use the E.L.F Method
1:. Determining Approximate Period
Ta = C . h x Furmola
t n
Height (hn) We Select Ct From Table 12.8-2
Typical Story Height (ft) 10.1 Coefficiant Ct 0.02
Number of Stories 75 We Select x From Table 12.8-2
Result 50.8 Coefficiant x 0.75

hn (ft) 50.85 0.381
Ct 0.02 Sec
x 0.75 Unit
We Select R (The Response Modifacition Factor) From Table 12.2-1
For All Light-framed walls With Shear Panels of all Materials the value of R = 2
We Select I (The Occupancy Important Factor) From Table 11.5-
1 By Using Section 11.5-1 We can Find The Value I = 1
