ASCE 7-05 Equivalent lateral force procedure
Example 1: Building frame systems with ordinary steel concentric braced frame
Example 2: Building frame systems with ordinary reinforced concrete shear wall
2. In seismic design category, D, E, & F (except special condition in section 12.3.4.1 and 12.3.4.2), horizontal seismic load effect shall
include redundancy factor, 1.3)
where QE is effect of horizontal seismic shear force calculated based on seismic base shear V, or Fp from equation for components,
non-structural elements, etc.
3. For strength design, vertical seismic load effect shall be calculated as
4. For allowable stress design, vertical seismic load effect shall be include in load combination as
where Ts = SD1/SDS.
Procedure
14. Determine Maximum seismic response coefficient Eq. 12.8-3 and 12.8-4
Csmax= SD1 / [ T(R/I)] for T TL
Csmax= SD1 / [T2(R/I)] for T TL
where TL is long-period transition period in Figure 22.15 to 22.20.
15. Minimum seismic response coefficient, Eq 12.8-5 & 12.8.6
