 DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
REINFORCED CONCRETE
DESIGN
• Concrete Cover, Cc = 0.04 m (beams and columns); 0.015 m (slabs)
• Concrete Compressive Strength, fc = 28 MPa
• Steel Yield Strength, fy = 414 Mpa (for main and secondary
reinforcements)
• Maximum Main Reinforcement = 50 mm (columns); 32 mm (beams)
• Minimum Main Reinforcement = 16 mm
• Minimum Secondary Reinforcement = 10 mm
• Minimum Reinforcement Percentage = 0.01
• Number of Equally Spaced Sections for Beam Design = 12
• Distance from Face of Support to Beam for Design Shear = 0.41 m
(equal to effective depth)
 DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
EARTHQUAKE DESIGN
 • Design Code = UBC 1997 (basis of the NSCP)
• Zone, Z = 0.4 (assumed location: Metro Manila)
• Importance Factor, I = 1.0 (for standard occupancy structures)
• R = 3.5 (Ordinary Reinforced Moment Resisting Frames)
• Near Source Factor Na = 1.2 (Soil Type A, ≤5 km)
• Near Source Factor Nv = 1.6 (Soil Type A, ≤5 km)
• Period, T = 1.006 seconds (from NSCP 208.5.2.2)

where Ct = 0.0731 (Reinforced Concrete Moment Resisting

Frames)
hn = building height

 TIME HISTORY ANALYSIS
• STAAD.Pro v8i cannot handle the entire time duration (t =
72 secs; 18,432 data points) for the time history analysis.
• For the simulation, only time t = 25 to t = 30 secs (1,302
data points) are used due to limited software capability.
• t = 25 to t = 30 secs is the time duration with maximum
acceleration.
• The number of mode shapes considered = 5 modes
• Damping Coefficient = 5%
