PROBLEM An SDOF portal frame fixed at its base has a mass of 1,000 kg at roof level. The system is supported by two columns each with stiffness of 12,000 N/m. The viscous damping coefficient is 500 N s/m. Under free vibrations, find the natural period of oscillations and cyclic as well as circular natural frequencies for both damped and undamped conditions. For the damped condition, if the initial displacement and velocity are 10 mm and 15 mm/s, respectively, compute frame side sway after 1.5 s.
