EARTHQUAKE ENGINEERING PROBLEM: A five storey building has a moment-resisting steel frame for a lateral force-resisting system. The following data are available for the location of the building in zone 4: I=1.0 Seismic Source Type=A Soil Profile Type=Sc Distance from nearest fault=25 km 1. What is the value of design base shear in kN? Use NSCP 2015. 2. What is the value of lateral force in kN at the top? Use NSCP 2015.
