Procedure for Earthquake Loading Part 1: Joint Load Part 2: Earthquake analysis. For calculating joint weight in Seismic analysis there are two methods available in Staad Pro. 1. Using Member weight (direct method without creating lumped mass) 2. Lumped mass method. Using Member Weight : 1. Main menu Commands Loading Definitions Seismic Loads IS 1893-->2002.

2. Load Definitions Seismic definitions Add.

3.Seismic Parameter screen appear.

Zone (for zone III) = 0.016 Response reduction Factor =5 (If ductile is provided RF=5; If ductile is not provided RF =3) Importance factor (I) =1 (For important building I=1.5 & all other building I=1.0) Soil site factor (SS) =2 ( For hard soil SS=1; Medium soil SS=2; Soft soil SS=3) Type of Structure (ST) =1 (ST for RC Frame=1; Steel frame =2; All other buildings =3) Period in X Direction = }(Optional) Period in Z Direction = } (Optional) Depth of Foundation DT) = 2.50 Add. 4. Self weight Add.

5. Copy the Dead Load and Live Load already given below the self weight. 6. Edit Edit input command file. In the Seismic Definition below the self weight, do the following: (i)The member load copied and pasted with load changing to weight (ii)The ve sign changed to + ve sign, GY to be deleted (iii)Also, the Floor load copied and pasted with load changing to weight (iv)The ve sign changed to + ve sign GY to be deleted

(v)The live load may be reduced to 0.5 times actual Live Load if LL >3.0 KN/m2 0.25 times actual Live Load if LL< 3.0 KN/m2). (vi) The Live Load on roof slab need not be considered for this case.

2.Lumping Masses at Joints: Procedure: (i) Make a copy of model file (ii) Put pinned supports at column nodes except bottom supports. (iii) Apply Load Combination Load 1 DL Load 2 LL Load Comb 3 1 1.0 2 0.25 (If LL< 3KN/m2 apply 1.0DL+0.25LL if LL> 3KN/m2 apply 1.0DL+0.50LL (iv) Run Analysis by using following command. Perform Analysis Load List 3 Print Support reaction Finish. (v) Take vertical reaction at the pinned supports as nodal Weights. (vi) Apply them as seismic weights.

Steps: 1. Main menu Select Beams parallel to Y 2. View View selected objects only. 3. Main menu Commands Support Specifications Pinned Assign. 4. Main menu Commands Post analysis Support Reactions. 5. Main menu Analysis Run analysis. 6. Main menu View Tables Support reactions Ok. 7. Select the joint No. and Force Y. 8. Copy and Past it in a Excell sheet separately. 9. Edit the same as follow: Joint No. Weight Fy (e.g) 3 weight 8.48. 10. Copy the above joint weight and paste it below Define 1893 load Zone 0.15 RF 5 I 1.0 SS 2 ST 1 DM 0.05 Df 2.5. .. 3 weight 8.48
