EQ Class Samples

The document provides examples and explanations for determining base shear, distributing base shear vertically and horizontally, accounting for accidental torsion, locating the center of mass and center of stiffness, and calculating seismic loads on columns. It includes examples of applying simplified base shear and equivalent lateral force procedures to determine design base shear for buildings. Formulas are given for distributing the base shear vertically based on storey weight and height, and horizontally based on relative stiffnesses and distances from the centroid. The total eccentricity from the center of mass includes inherent and accidental torsion components. The last example shows setting up the calculation of horizontal seismic loads on each column.
