V. IS 1893 2016 Response Spectrum

Vertical
Calculation of base shear for vertical motion of oscillation by response spectrum method in IS 1893 : 2016
(Part 1).

Details
The structure is modelled in STAAD.Pro considering the following:

Seismic zone factor, Z = 0.36

Importance factor, I = 1.2
Response reduction factor, R = 5
Soil site conditions = Hard

The dimension of the columns is 0.2m x 0.1 m and material is concrete

The generated model is subjected to a response spectrum load along global Y direction.

Natural frequencies / time period and mode shapes are obtained from the STAAD.Pro output file.

Table 1. Natural frequency / time period

Mode Frequency (cyc/sec) Time Period (sec)

1 9.913 0.10088

2 27.083 0.03692

3 36.996 0.02703
