Determine the UBC-97 design seismic forces for a nine-story special moment resisting steel frame office building located in NCR on very dense soil and soft rock. The building is located 5 km from a fault capable of large earthquakes with a moderate slip rate (M>7, SR>2mm/yr). The story heights are all four meters. The plan area is 30 meters by 50 meters. The total dead load is 5 kN per square meter at all levels. The moment frames consist of two four-bay frames in the transverse direction and two seven-bay frames in the longitudinal direction. Use NSCP provision.
