STRUCTURA DYNAMICS

PROBLEM SET NO. 3 STRUCTURAL DYNAMICS

Consider a four storey shear building model of the previous problem set. The structure is fairly
regular in geometry, stiffness, continuity, and mass distribution. It is required to perform a static
as well as a dynamic lateral force analysis and the results will be compared. The static lateral
forces may now be calculated using NSCP 2015 provisions. The following values are to be
used in the computations Ca = 0.44 Na, Cv = 0.64Nv, Na = 1.2, Soil Type = Sd, Zone 4 = 1.0
and R = 8.5, o=2.8)
NOTE:
1. Tabulate results for storey Lateral Forces ( Static and Dynamics ).
2. Graph results for Storey Lateral forces ( Static and Dynamic ).
3. Comment on results.
