A single story building with a seismic weight of 400 kips and a stiffness of 250...
Consider a 6 story building with a total plan area B x L. Which B=100ft and L=60ft. The average weight of each floor and roof are 100lb/ft2 and 80lb/ft2, respectively. The 72ft tall building is located in a seismic region with SDS= 1.0g and SD1= 0.7 for a building supported on rock, where g is the gravitational acceleration. The structure of the building consists of steel moment frames (all joints are rigid) that have R value of 8. The importance...
