Calculation of modal participation ratio

Modal mass participation ratio = `(Mn^**)/ (mj)`

Where mj= total mass of the building = m+ m+ m+ m+ m= 5m

Modal mass participation ratio for first mode (n=1) = `(4.188 m)/ (5 m) = 0.8376`

Modal mass participation ratio for second mode (n=2) = `(0.436 m)/ (5 m) = 0.0872`

Modal mass participation ratio for third mode (n=3) = `(0.121 m)/ (5 m) = 0.0242`

Modal mass participation ratio for fourth mode (n=4) = `(0.038 m)/ (5 m) = 0.0076`

Modal mass participation ratio for fifth mode (n=5) = `(0.008 m)/ (5 m) = 0.0016`

Adding First two mode mass participation ratio, we get `0.8376+ 0.0872= 0.9248` i.e. 92.48%.

To achieve minimum 90% of modal mass participation ratio, the first two modes are enough.

Base shear calculation,

For the second mode (n=2),

An is observed from graph for 0.6852 sec time period,

`Vb2= ((0.436 m) * (0.83 g))`

Vb2= 0.362 mg

For the third mode (n=3),

An is observed from graph for 0.4346 sec time period

`Vb3= ((0.121 m) * (1.05 g))`

Vb3= 0.127 mg

For the fourth mode (n=4),

An is observed from graph for 0.3383 sec time period

`Vb4= ((0.038 m) * (1.05 g))`

An is observed from graph for 0.2966 sec time period

`Vb5= ((0.008 m) * (1.05 g))`

Vb5= 0.0084 mg

Average base shear is calculated by the method of square root of sum of square,

`Vb= sqrt((Vb1^2)+ (Vb2^2)+ (Vb3^2)+ (Vb4^2)+ (Vb5^2))`

`Vb= sqrt((1.131^2)+ (0.362^2)+ (0.127^2)+ (0.04^2)+ (0.0084^2))`

`Vb= sqrt(1.428)`

`Vb= 1.195 mg`
