PROBLEM: A 9-Storey building is supported by a steel braced frame on a certain location having the ff. data available: Z= 0.4, I = 1.0, Soil Profile Type = SD, R = 6, Ct = 0.035, Seismic Source Type A, and d= 4.3km. 1. Solve for the design base shear. 2. Solve for the floor shears. 3. Draw and label all the forces in the building.
