Methodology
The design lateral shear force at each floor in each mode is computed by STAAD in accordance with the IS: 1893 (Part 1) -2002 (equation 7.8.4.5c and 7.8.4.5d.) Qik = Ak*fik*Pk*Wi
STAAD utilizes the following procedure to generate the lateral seismic loads.
User provides the value for Z/2xI/R as factors for input spectrum Program calculates time periods for first six modes or as specified by the user. Program calculates Sa/g for each mode utilizing time period and damping for each mode. The program calculates design horizontal acceleration spectrum Ak for different modes. The program then calculates mode participation factor for different modes. The peak lateral seismic force at each floor in each mode is calculated. All response quantities for each mode are calculated. The peak response quantities are then combined as per method (CQC or SRSS or ABS or TEN or CSM) as defined by the user to get the final results. The design base shear VB (calculated from the Response Spectrum method) is compared with the base shear Vb (calculated by empirical formula for the fundamental time period). If VB is less than Vb, all of the response quantities are multiplied by Vb /VB as per Clause 7.8.2.
The base shear, for a given mode for a given direction, reported in the response spectrum analysis is obtained as VB = X*Y*Z*D where X = Mass participation factor for that mode for that direction Y = Total mass specified for that direction Z = Spectral acceleration for that mode D = direction factor specified in that load case
SPECTRUM SRSS X 0.7 Y 0.5 Z 0.65 DISP DAMP 0.05 SCALE 32.2 Period is determined for each mode. Spectral displacement (Sa/g) for that mode is read by interpolating the response spectrum plot.
Spectral displacement Sa/g for each direction is multiplied with associated Direction factor. D The X direction spectral displacement = Sa/g * 0.1822
Obtain vertical distribution of the total base shear in a RS analysis, like in Static Procedure.
No direct method to obtain lateral force distribution. Since the values from a RS analysis are absolute quantities. We may add up the shears in the columns above that level for an approximate estimate.
Suppose we have two modes and 4 supports in the x direction & in SRSS combination method the results are computed as follows:
Note that SRSS base shear (39.8) does not equal the sum of the SRSS reactions (18.0+19.6+46.2+12.4=96.2). This is due to the fact that the individual maximums would not occur at the same time and not necessarily with the same sign. So the base shear magnitude is usually much less than the sum of the reactions.
Static Analysis Method & Calculation of Design Seismic Force in STAAD Pro v8i as per IS1893 2002 Structure: Four-story RC office building The building is located in Assam (seismic zone V). The soil conditions are medium stiff Entire building is supported on a raft foundation. R. C. frames are infilled with brick-masonry. Lumped weight due to dead loads is 12kN/m2 on floors and 10 kN/m2 on the roof. Live load of 4 kN/m2 on floors and 1.5 kN/m2 on the roof. Design Parameters: For seismic zone V Zone factor Z = 0.36 (Table 2 of IS: 1893) For office building, the importance factor, I, = 1.0 (Table 6 of IS: 1893). Building provided with moment resisting frames detailed as per IS:13920-1993. Response reduction factor, R, = 5.

BM Calculation Results Compare with Actual Results PORTAL METHOD OF ANALYSIS This method Presented by Albert Smith in the journals of Western society of engineers in 1915. Approximate method,Horizontal force PORTAL FRAME Portal frame can be defined as two-dimensional rigid frames that have the basic characteristics of a rigid joint between column and beam. Portal frame construction is a method of building and designing structures. Because of these very strong and rigid joints, some of the bending moment in the rafters is transferred to the columns. Portal frame construction is therefore typically seen in Warehouses and other places where large, open spaces are required at low cost and a pitched roof is acceptable. The main objective of this form of design is to reduce bending moment in the beam, which allows the frame to act as one structural unit.
