1.
Using the mathematical model of the building developed for Performance Objective 1A,
para. 5-4e(3)
perform a 3D spectral response analysis using Ground Motion B (3/4 x MCE).
para. 5-4e (5) and (6)
2.
Using only fundamental mode responses, calculate combined load effects, displacement of
para. 5-4f(1)
center of mass at roof level, and base shear.
3.
Calculate DCR' for the structural elements and identify element with highest DCR and any
s
para. 5-4f(1)
other elements within 10% of that value.
4.
Determine necessary reduction in seismic effects to reduce highest DCR to 1.0. Reduce the
para. 5-4f(1)
seismic effects ,base shear, and roof displacement by the seismic effects reduction. Plot base

shear vs. roof displacement.
5.
Modify elements identified in Step 4 by inserting plastic hinges at the yielding ends in the
para. 5-4f(1)(c)
mathematical model.
6.
Repeat the analyses, add the new seismic effects to the reduced seismic effects from the prior
para. 5-4f(1)(d)
analyses, and repeat Steps 2 and 3.
7.
Determine necessary reduction in the new seismic effects to reduce highest DCR to 1.0.
Fig. 4-5
Reduce the new seismic effects, base shear, and roof displacement by the reduction in the new
seismic effects. Plot the new increment of base shear and roof displacement by superposition
on prior plot.
8.
Repeat Steps 5,6,and 7 until plot results in undesirable response or failure of critical elements.
