Importance Factor, IE = 1.00 page 297, Table 1604.5
Soil Site Class = D page 350, Table 1615.1.1
Location Zip Code = 0 hn
Spectral Accel., SS = 0.085 Figure 1615(1) or USGS Info.
Spectral Accel., S1 = 0.031 Figure 1615(2) or USGS Info.
Structure Height, hn = 11.150 ft.
Total Weight, W = 11.82 kips(Section 1617.4.1, page 359) V = Cs*W
