Exercise:
Use the Eurocode 8 Elastic Spectrum (details below) to calculate the design seismic force ('the base
shear') and peak displacement of the following two structures:
Structure 1: M=10,000kg,K=400kNm
Structure 2: M=10,000kg,K=4,000kNm
Assume ag=0.35g,5% damping
Exercise: Use the Eurocode 8 Elastic Spectrum (
