Calculations for Seismic Coefficient:

Horizontal Seismic Forces:

Feq = Ah x (Dead Load + Appropriate Live Load)
Ah = Horizontal Seismic Coefficient

Ah =

I= Importance factor
I= 1.2
Z= Zone Factor as given in table 5 (Interim Specifications)

Zone No = V Zone NoZone Factor

F= Horizontal force in kN required to be applied at the centre of mass

of the superstructure for one mm.
Horizontal deflection at the top of the pier/abutment along the
direction
Calculation of Time period: of horizontal force

Calculation of stiffness for Pier:

Dimension of shaft in long. Direction = 12.50 m
Dimension of shaft in transverse Direction(outer to outer) = 1.30 m
