Calculation Steps for Computing the design Base Shear (V) per
UBC 1997

Computation of V per equation (30-4):

V = Cv * I * W / ( R * T )
V = 0.840 * 1.250 * 4429 / ( 2.900 * 0.1532 )
V = 10471.2 Kgf

Computation of V per equation (30-5):

V = 2.5 * Ca * I * W / R
V = 2.5 * 0.360 * 1.25 * 4429 / 2.900
V = 1718.5 Kgf

The computed base shear is the minimum of V from 30-4 and 30-5.

Computation of V per equation (34-2), minimum V. V cannot be less

than

this value !
V = 0.56 * Ca * I * W
V = 0.56 * 0.360 * 1.250 * 4429
V = 1116.4 Kgf

Next compute the top load per equation 30-14. The top load is
zero if the period of vibration (T) is less than 0.7 seconds.

Ft=0, as T=0.154s

Note: This value does not need to exceed 0.25V.

Ft = Min( 0.07 * T * V, 0.25 * V )
Ft = Min( 0.07 * 0.153 * 1718 , 0.25 * 1718 )
Ft = 0.0 Kgf

Next Sum the earthquake weights times their heights (wi*hi):

Current Sum = Prev. Sum + Wght 543. * Hght 1000.000 = 543.

Current Sum = Prev. Sum + Wght 480. * Hght 2025.000 = 1514.
Current Sum = Prev. Sum + Wght 2887. * Hght 5050.000 = 16091.
Current Sum = Prev. Sum + Wght 521. * Hght 8074.999 = 20299.

Compute the load at each level based on equation 30-15 and multiply
by the load case scalar. The sum will be the total adjusted shear.

Fx = (( V - Ft ) * wx * hx / ( sum of ( wi * hi ))) * EqFact

Fx = [(1719.) * 543. * 1000.000 / 20299.]*0.7143 = 33.
Fx = [(1719.) * 480. * 2025.000 / 20299.]*0.7143 = 59.
Fx = [(1719.) * 2887. * 5050.000 / 20299.]*0.7143 = 882.
Fx = [(1719.) * 521. * 8074.999 / 20299.]*0.7143 = 254.

The Natural Frequency for the Vessel (Ope...) is 6.52836 Hz.

(T=1/6.52836=0.154s)
