Now we need to obtain the base shear for each of the 5 modes of vibration.

Vbn =ln2Mn">ln2Mnln2�� X An

(T1 ) = 2 seconds,  A1= 0.27g

(T2 ) = 0.6852 seconds, A2 = 0.76g

(T3 ) = 0.4346 seconds, A3 = 1.03g

(T4 ) = 0.3383 seconds, A4 = 1.03g

(T5 ) = 0.2966 seconds, A5 = 0.76g

Mode:-1

  •  Vb1= (M1* x A1) = (4.39M x 0.27g) = 2.613 kips

Mode:-2

  • Vb2 = (M2* x A2) = (0.43M x 0.76g) = 0.719 kips

Mode:-3

  • Vb3 = (M3* x A3) = (0.12M x 1.03g) = 0.272 kips

Mode:-4

  • Vb4 = (M4* x A4) = (0.03M x 1.03g) = 0.067 kips

Mode:-5

  • Vb5 = (M5* x A5) = (0.007M x 0.76g) = 0.011 kips

Step:-7

Combined base shear as per SRSS rule:-

               =√((2.613)2+(0.719)2+(0.272)2+(0.067)2+(0.011)2(2.613)2+(0.719)2+(0.272)2+(0.067)2+(0.011)2)

               = 3.20 kips

Step:-8

  • The two modes are to be considered such that a modal mass participating ratio of 90% is obtained.
  •  = 88% + 8.6% = 96.6%

RESULT:-

  • Calculated Ln , Mn and Γn for each of the five modes from the given equations.
  • Calculated the effective modal mass Mn* and the modal mass participating ratio for the 5 modes.
  • The base shear for each of the 5 modes of vibration are obtained.
  • As per SRSS rule the combined base shear is obtained.
  • The two modes are to be considered such that a modal mass participating ratio of 90% is obtained.
