solve all of the last names from A-K to please for example use k=100k/in , m =1000lb/g . use el centro (2nd picture ) to solve the questions. Thank you for your help!
for the following questions ignore that last name and just solve it pleae:
Verify the modes that are orthogonal
Normalize the first mode
uisng electro with 2%damping, Determine Sa&Sd only for the first mode
For question 2 do 2% please. Use El centro spectrum to answer the secon question please. Thank you for your help!
solve please

- Design a fully restrained BFP moment connection to support the factored bending moment of 1,200 kN·m and factored shear force of 95 kN due to wind and gravity loads. Use 90mm spacing between the bolts, and 40mm edge spacing. The steel grade is A992 for the W920 × 201 beam and W840 × 359 column and A36 for the steel plate (30 mm thick). Use FEXX = 450 MPa electrodes and 20mm A490 bolts (threads included) for the flange plate (Fr= 457 MPa), 16mm A307 bolts for the shear tab (Fnv = 165 MPa).
