Earthquake Load at Frame C

This document provides calculations for earthquake loads on a 4-story residential duplex in San Rafael, Bulacan. It calculates the dead loads at each level, determines the base shear and vertical distribution of forces according to NSCP 2010, then calculates the seismic design loads. The maximum seismic design load is 947.08 kN at the top level.

DATA:
For exterior wall use = 150 mm thick
For interior wall use = 100 mm thick
Weight of concrete (reinforced) = 24 KN/m3 including reinforcing bars.
Unit weight of CHB = 280kg/m3 x 9.81 m/s2 = 2.75 KN/m3

BASED ON NSCP 2010:


I = 1.5 for essential structure
Cv = 0.64 Nv for SD (medium stiff)
Z = 0.4 Seismic Zone 4
Ct = 0.0731 for RC Moment Resisting Frame
Ca = 0.44Na which is Na = 1 (Near Source Factor)
Nv = 1
hn = 12.8
R = 2.5, = 2.8 Ordinary R.C. Structure

DEAD LOAD COMPUTATION:


W = {[(vol. of column + vol. of beam + vol. of slab) x 24 KN/m3] + (vol. of wall x 2.75
KN/m3)}
