Seismic Analysis

The document summarizes the seismic analysis of a structure according to NSCP 2015 standards. It provides details on calculating the design base shear using static force and equivalent lateral force procedures. The total weight of the structure is 560.75 kN. Based on the calculations, the adopted total base shear is 72.57 kN, which is then distributed to each level of the structure.

Seismic Analysis As per NSCP 2015 Standards

Design Base Shear - Static Force Procedure


Seismic Zone, Z 0.4 Height of Structure, hn 6.2 m
Seismic Coefficient, Cv 0.64Nv Near Source Factor, Na 1
Seismic Coefficient, Ca 0.44Na Near Source Factor, Nv 1
Resisting Structural System, R 8.5 Closest Distance To
40 km
Importance Factor, I 1 Known Seismic Source
Total Weight, W 560.75 kN
Soil Profile Type SD (Stiff Soil Profile)
Occupancy Category IV (Standard Occupancy Structures)
Ct 0.0731 (Reinforced concrete moment-resisting frames )

Weight Calculation
Roof Level
Roofing Material = 50.00 kN
Walls = 96.48 kN
Beams = 19.98 kN
Columns = 11.52 kN
Σ = 177.98 kN

2nd Floor Level


Walls = 176.88 kN
Slabs = 72.00 kN
Finishes and Ceiling = 42.00 kN
Beams = 68.85 kN
Columns = 23.04 kN
Σ = 382.77 kN

Total Weight = 560.75 kN

Base Shear Computation


CvI
V= W (208-8)
RT
T = Ct(hn)3/4 ,Structure Period in seconds (208-12)
T = 0.0731(6.2)^(3/4)= 0.2872 s
Cv = 0.64(1) = 0.64
0.64(1)(560.75)
V= = 147.01 kN
8.5(0.2872)

But total base shear shall not exceed:


2.5CaI
V= W (208-9)
R
Ca = 0.44(1) = 0.44
2.5 (0.44)(1)(560.75)
V= = 72.57 kN
8.5
But total base shear shall not be less than:
V = 0.11CaIW (208-10)
V = 0.11(0.44)(1)(560.75)= 27.14 kN

For Seismix Zone 4, the total base shear shall also not be less than:
0.8NvI
V= W (208-11)
R
0.8 (1)(1)(560.75)
V= = 52.78 kN
8.5

Therefore, adopt 72.57 kN for base shear design

Base Shear Distribution per Level


Ft = 0.07TV (208-16)
(208-17)
Ft = 0, since T ≤ 0.7 s
Level hx (m) wx (kN) wxhx Fx (kN) but not greater than 0.25V = 18.1425
Roof 6.2 177.98 1103.48 34.39

Σ 560.75 2328.34 72.57
