The document describes performing a seismic load analysis on a steel building according to ASCE 7-02. It outlines the calculations to determine the total design lateral force or shear at the base of the building and how that force is distributed amongst building levels based on each level's mass and height.

Notation:
V - total design lateral force or shear at the base of the building
Cs - seismic response coefficient
W - total gravity load of the building located or assigned to Levels
SDS - design spectra response acceleration in the short period range (see ASCE 7-02 Section 9.4.1.2.5-1)
R - response modification factor (see ASCE 7-02 Table 9.5.2.2)
I - occupancy importance factor (see ASCE 7-02 Section 9.1.4)
SMS - maximum considered earthquake spectral response acceleration for short periods (see ASCE 7-02 Section 9.4.1.2.4-1)
SS - mapped maximum considered earthquake spectral response acceleration at short periods (see ASCE 7-02 Figure 9.4.1.1a)
Fa - acceleration-based site coefficient at .3 s-period (see ASCE 7-02 Table 9.4.1.2.4a)
SD1 - design spectral response acceleration at a period of 1s (see ASCE 7-02 Section 9.4.1.2.5-2)
SM1 - maximum considered earthquake spectral acceleration for 1s period (see ASCE 7-02 Section 9.4.1.2.4)
Fv - velocity-based site coefficient at 1s period (see ASCE 7-02 Table 9.4.1.2.4b)
S1 - mapped maximum considered earthquake spectral response acceleration at a period of 1s (see ASCE 7-02 Section 9.4.1.1b)
T - fundamental period of the building (see ASCE 7-02 Section 9.5.5.3)
Ta - approximate fundamental period (see ASCE 7-02 Section 9.5.5.3.2-1)
CT = building period coefficient (see ASCE 7-02 Table 9.5.5.3.2)
Cu - coefficient for upper limit on calculated period (see ASCE 7-02 Table 9.5.5.3.1)
hn - height in feet (meters) above the base to the highest level of the building
Cvx - vertical distribution factor
Wx, Wi - the portion of the total gravity load of the building (W) located or assigned to level I or x
hx - the height (feet or m) from the base level I or x
Fx - the portion of the seismic base shear, V, induced at level x
