Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
A 12-story building with a total weight of 1200 kN is located in a region with a seismic coefficient of 0.25. Calculate the base shear and discuss how this impacts the design.
💡 Hint: Use the base shear formula.
Question 2
How will an increase in the height of a building from 5 stories to 10 stories affect the seismic coefficient if the total mass remains the same?
💡 Hint: Consider how height impacts force distribution in structures.
