Write a short note on the following?
Q1
(a) Equivalent static method CO5, CO6 L2: 2*5 = 10
(b) Strong column-weak beam Understanding
(c) Define ductility
(d) Centre of mass
(e) Define ductile detailing
Q2 Discuss the factors required for assessing the design CO5 L2: 5
response spectrum in detail. Draw a neat sketch if Understanding
needed.
Q3 Explain the concept of ductile detailing and explain CO6 L3: Applying 5
factors affecting the ductility of structures in detail.
Q4 A 10-storey OMRF building has plan dimensions of CO5 L4: Analyze 10
24*24 square meters. The storey height is 3 m. The DL
per unit area of the floor, consisting of the floor slab,
finishes etc., is 4 kN/m2. Weight of the partitions on the

floor can be assumed to be 2 kN/m2. The intensity of live
load on each floor is 3 kN/m2 and on the roof is 1.5
kN/m2. The soil below the foundation is hard and the
building is located in Delhi. Determine the seismic
forces and shears at different floor levels
