Given a proposed six-story (12 meters by 18 meters) City Library which is to be constructed in the Province of Benguet (site to fault distance of 7.1 km from a fault line-assume seismic source type B). It is designed under reinforced concrete with special moment-resisting frames. Assume an average regular weight per floor area to be 10.5 KPa while the roof deck weighs 8 KPa per floor area. The regular floor-to-floor height is 3.20 m.   a. Design Base Shear   b. Vertical storey forces in each level.   c. Shear force per floor level and the overturning moment per floor level
