A four storey building of 25m × 25m plan dimensions and 3m floor height is located in seismic zone IlI on a site with medium soil. The structure type is special moment resisting frame. Seismic weight of first floor, second floor and third floor; W1 = W2 = Wa = 5000kN. Seismic weight of roof slab, W4 = 3500kN. Calculate design base shear and story shear using seismic coefficient method.
