Definition of Terms
• Base – the level at which the earthquake motions are considered to be

imparted to the structure or the level at which the structure as a dynamic
vibrator is supported
Base NGL
Basement Soil
Base NGL

• Base Shear- total design lateral force or shear at the
Bracing
base of a building Diaphragm
• Braced Frame System- an essentially vertical truss

system of concentric or eccentric type that is provided Base NGL
to resist lateral force
• Diaphragm- a horizontal or nearly horizontal system V, Base Shear
acting to transmit lateral forces to the vertical elements

• Storey- the space between levels.
• Level- conjunction of beam, slabs and columns
Base Shear Computation using the NSCP 2010
• Static Procedure
from Sec 208.5.2. The total design base shear in a given direction
shall be determined by the following equation
𝐶𝑣 𝐼𝑤
𝑉𝑑𝑒𝑠𝑖𝑔𝑛 =
𝑅𝑇
The total base shear shall not exceed to

2.5𝐶𝑎 𝐼𝑤
𝑉𝑚𝑎𝑥 =
𝑅
• The total design base shear shall
not be less than where:
z = seismic zone factor
𝑉𝑚𝑖𝑛 = 0.11𝐶𝑎 𝐼𝑤
Ca, Cv = seismic coefficient
• In addition to seismic zone 4, the Na,Nv = near-source factor
base shear shall not be less than I = seismic importance factor
0.8𝑍𝑁𝑣 𝐼𝑤 R = overstrength reduction
𝑉𝑚𝑖𝑛 =
𝑅 factor
w = seismic dead weight
T= structural period of
vibration, seconds
V = base shear in kN
Design Base Shear

Seismic Zone Factor (z)
• Zone 2 comprises of Palawan, Sulu

and Tawi-Tawi.
• Zone 4- Rest of the Philippines

Importance Factor (I)
Overstrength Reduction Factor (R)
• Overstrength reduction factor – can be determined depending on the

frame type and the materials used such as concrete, steel, masonry,
timber or combinations. Refer to Tables 208-11A up to 11D
Structural Period of Vibration (T)
• The value of the structural period of vibration is set forth by the equation
𝑇 = 𝑐𝑡 (ℎ𝑛 )3/4
where
T – period in seconds
Ct - is the structural period coefficient
hn- height of the highest level n with respect to the base
Ct = 0.0853 for steel moment-resisting frames

Ct = 0.0731 for reinforced concrete moment-resisting frames and
eccentrically braced frames
Ct = 0.0488 for all other buildings
For structures with masonry or concrete shear walls,
0.0743
𝑐𝑡 =
𝐴𝑐
2
𝐷𝑒
𝐴𝑐 = 𝐴𝑒 0.2 +
ℎ𝑛
where
Ac = combined effective area of the shear walls in the first storey of the
structure in sq.m
Ae = the minimum cross-sectional area in any horizontal plane in the first
storey of a shear wall, sq.m
De- length of shear wall in the direction parallel to the applied forces in m
De/hn – shall not be greater than 0.9
Seismic Source Type
• Seismic source type is a parameter that depends on maximum moment

magnitude from previous earthquake phenomenon
Soil Profile Types
Seismic Coefficients and Near-source Factors
• Near-source Factors- a parameter that depends on location of the

structure
Please go to http://faultfinder.phivolcs.dost.gov.ph/
Seismic Coefficients and Near-source Factors
(Ca & Cv)
• Seismic Coefficient
Whipping Force (Ft)
• Whipping Force Ft- concentrated force at the top, which is in addition to

the storey shear at the top most level which is set forth by the equations:
𝑖𝑓 𝑇 ≤ 0.70𝑠𝑒𝑐, 𝐹𝑡 = 0.00 𝑘𝑁
𝑇 > 0.70𝑠𝑒𝑐, 𝐹𝑡 = 0.07𝑇𝑉
𝐹𝑡𝑚𝑎𝑥𝑖𝑚𝑢𝑚 = 0.25𝑉
where
T = structural period in seconds
V = design base shear in kN

• Design as special reinforced concrete moment frame
• Typical beam is 250x500mm and typical column is 350x350mm
• Slab thickness is 150mm
