• W = total seismic dead load, total • I = seismic importance factor

seismic dead load is the total dead load and
applicable portions of other loads listed below:
• Ca/Cv = seismic coefficient

1. In storage and warehouse occupancies, a

resisting systems
2. Where a partition load is used in the floor
design, a load not less than 0.5 kN/sq.m. shall • Nv = near-source factor used in the
be included determination of Cv in Seismic Zone 4
3. Total weight of permanent equipment shall be • T = elastic fundamental period of
included
vibration of the structure in the direction under
consideration
 Elastic Fundamental Period of Vibration, T
Method A:
For all buildings, the value T may be approximated
from the following equation:
T = Ct(hn)3/4
where:
Ct = 0.0853 for steel moment-resisting frames
Ct = 0.0731 for reinforced concrete moment-
resisting frames and eccentrically braced frames
Ct = 0.0488 for all other buildings
Method B:
σ𝑛𝑖=1 𝑤𝑖δ𝑖2
𝑇 = 2𝜋
𝑔(σ𝑛𝑖=1 𝑓𝑖δ𝑖 )
The value of T from Method B shall not exceed a
value 30 percent greater than the value of T
obtained from Method A in Seismic Zone 4, and 40
percent in Seismic Zone 2.
fi = represent any lateral force distributed
approximately in accordance with the principles of
Equations Vertical Distribution Force
δ𝑖 = elastic deflections by applying lateral forces, fi
 VERTICAL DISTRIBUTION OF FORCE
• The total force shall be distributed over
the height of the structure:
V = Ft + σ𝒏𝒊=𝟏 𝑭𝒊
• The concentrated force Ft, at the top,
which is in addition to Fi, shall be
determined from the equation:
Ft =O.07TV
• Ft, need not exceed O.25V and may be
considered as zero where T is 0.7 second
or less.
• The remaining portion or the base shear
shall be distributed over the height or the
structure, including Level n, according to
the following equation:
𝑽 − 𝑭𝒕 𝒘𝒙𝒉𝒙
𝑭𝒙 =
σ𝒏𝒊=𝟏 𝒘𝒊𝒉𝒊
