Day 12 Earthquake Load Analysis

Day 12
Earthquake Analysis Using
Seismic Coefficient Method
EARTH QUAKE ANALYSIS USING SEISMIC COEFFICIENT METHOD:

Seismic Coefficient method is applicable for buildings:
(a) Regular Buildings :
Height < 90m in zones II & III.
<40m in zones IV & V
(b) Irregular Buildings :
Height < 40m in zones II & III.
<12m in zones IV & V
The Various methods used in STAAD Pro for earthquake analysis are:
1. Lumped mass method (introduced by Research Engineers before
2007)
2. Member weight method (Introduced by Bentley after 2007)
3. Reference load method (Introduced by Bentley after 2007)
4. Converting static load to equivalent seismic analysis .
Design of seismic shear (VB)

Total design seismic base shear VB along any principal direction is given by
VB= Ah W
Ah= Design horizontal acceleration spectrum value
Ah= (Z/2) (I/R) (Sa/g)
W= Seismic weight of building
= Dead load + appropriate amount of imposed load.
Note:
1. Live load upto and including 3.0 KN/m2 =25% of imposed load.
2. Live load > 3.0KN/m2 = 50% of imposed load.
3. For calculating design seismic forces imposed load on roof need not be
considered.
Applying Seismic in STAAD Pro :

There are two parts.
Part 1: Define Seismic load.
Part 2: Applying Defined Seismic Load
Part 1 : Define Seismic Load
The value of Ah is computed by generating Seismic Load Definition by
specifying
following parameters in STAAD.

Note:
This procedure is very useful in the older version of Staad Pro due to the fact
that in the OLDER version, load list in load cases differ from the load list in
load definition.
In the latter version of Staad Pro 2007, you can just copy paste the loads
from the load cases to the seismic definition and let Staad will do the entire
process of analysing weights but of course there is a need to carefully
change some load name, e.g. instead of floor load that will be floor weights
Member Load will be Member weight etc. It's much easier. This method of
analyzing Earthquake analysis by direct method as MEMBER WEIGHT METHOD is
explained separately.

Converting Static Project to equivalent seismic analysis project.

1. Defining seismic load
2. Go to staad editor. After zone factor values Copy the actual member
weight from load case 1 Dead load values and paste it below the
existing Member weight below the existing load value. Do the
following changes:
(i)Delete the existing member weight.
(ii)The (-)ve sign changed to +ve sign GY to be deleted.
Below the Floor weight:
He input file. Then Copy the actual floor load under slab load and paste
it below the existing load in Floor weight. Do the following changes:
(i)The existing floor load to be deleted.
(ii)The (-) ve sign changed to +ve sign. GY to be deleted.
3. Remove the load comb from the input file. Then add the seismic load
as follows:
Number 5 Loading Type: Seismic
Title: EQ in X +ve Add.
Title: EQ in X -ve Add.
Title: EQ in Z +ve Add.
Title: EQ in Z -ve Add Close.
Seismic load X direction Factor: 1Add.
.
Seismic load X direction Factor :-1Add.
Seismic load Z direction Factor :1Add.
Seismic load Z direction Factor :-1AddClose.
4. Edit the input file as follows:
In seismic analysis EQ load should be defined first. In this case it is
case No. 5 to 8. Change the load cases 5 to 8 as Load case No. 1 to 4
and cut and paste it below floor weight after zone factor value.
5. Create a new load case No. 5 as Dead Load. In that include the
selfweight, Member weight, Floor Weight originally created in load
cases 1 to 2. Now change the floor load for Dead Load value only in
the existing load case.
6. Copy the floor load in dead load case 1 and paste in place of newly
created load case 6as Live Load. Now change the floor load value as
Live load value.
7. Give Auto load combination and load list .
8. The other steps analysis type, Post analysis print & Run Analysis as in
static problems.
