    This document provides calculations to determine the design base shear for a proposed 13.02m tall concrete building located in San Jose, Iriga City, Philippines. It is in Seismic Zone 4 with a soil type of SB. The distance to the seismic source is 9km. The structural period is calculated as 0.501 sec. Near-source factors and seismic coefficients are determined based on the location and soil type. The initial calculated base shear of 1390.56kN is shown to comply with code limits.

    • Determine the Structural Period of Vibration (T) of the Building.

    (For concrete moment-resisting frames, Ct=0.0731)

    T = Ct(hn)^3/4
    = 0.0731(13.02)^3/4
    T = 0.501 sec

    • Find the near-source factors Na and NV for Seismic Source Type A and distance to Seismic
    Source of < 2 km.

    Na = 1.5
    NV = 2.0

    • Determine the seismic coefficients Ca and CV from for soil type SB and Zone 4.

    Ca = 0.60
    CV = 0.40 Nv
    = 0.40 (2.0)
    CV = 0.80

    • Determine the Design Base Shear


    The total design base shear in a given direction is:

    V = CVI x W
    RT

    = 0.80(1.00) x 11565.821
    8.5(0.501)
    V = 2172.75 KN

    • The code indicates that the total design base shear need not exceed the following:

    V = 2.5CAI x W
    R

    = 2.5(0.6)(1.00) x 11565.821
    8.5
    V = 2041.027 KN < 2172.75 KN (NOT OK)
    :. Since the total base shear exceeds the given formula, I will change my location from Sta. Cruz,
    Bato, Cam. Sur to San Jose, Iriga City having the distance to seismic source of 9.0 km.

    Na = 1.04
    NV = 1.28

    • Determine the seismic coefficients Ca and CV from for soil type SB and Zone 4.

    Ca = 0.40 Na
    = 0.40 (1.04)
    Ca = 0.416

    • Determine the Design Base Shear


    The total design base shear in a given direction is:

    V = CVI x W

    = 2.5(0.416)(1.00) x 11565.821
    8.5
    V = 1415.112 KN > 1390.56 KN (OK)

    • The design base shear need not be less than the following:

    V = 0.11CaIW
    = 0.11 (0.416) (1.0) (11565.821)
    V = 529.252 KN < 1390.56 KN (OK)

    • In Seismic Zone 4 (Z=0.4), the total design base shear shall also be not less than:
    V = 0.8ZNVI x W
    R
    = 0.8(0.4)(1.28)(1.00) x 11565.821
    8.5
    V = 557.337 KN < 1390.56 KN (OK)

    Therefore, use the design base shear V=1390.56 KN
