The structure shown irbelowFig. 1 has very stiff beams, and hence, will be Idealized as two degrees of freedom. The structure properties are given as follows: mass: m₁ = 0.2 kN.s² /mm m₂=0.4 kN.s² /mm stiffness: K₁= 12 El₁/L₁ = 50 kN /mm k₂= 12 El₂/L₂ = 100 kN /mm L₁ = 3m L₂=3m EQ k₁ kz M₁ m₂ K₁ k₂ u1 damping: 5=5% Fig. 1 If the structure is excited by El-Centro earthquake in the direction shown in the same figure, calculate the maximum displacements, maximum story forces, and maximum reactions, i.e. base shear and base moment using SRSS combining method.
