Building Time Periods and Seismic Data

1. The document provides time periods (T) for different types of buildings based on building height (h) and base dimension (d). T is provided for bare moment resisting frame (MRF) buildings, MRF buildings with structural walls, and MRF buildings with brick infill panels. 2. Response spectrum values (Sa/g) are provided for use in response spectrum and equivalent static analysis methods for soft and medium soil conditions. 3. Sample calculations are shown for seismic load analysis including seismic loads in two horizontal directions, static and spectral seismic loads, and other load parameters like dead and live loads.
