A two-story hospital is being designed in New Jersey. A) With a basic wind speed of 115 mph and wind exposure C, the importance factor I is 1.15 and Kzt=1.0, G-Gust factor= 0.85 for rigid structures. Determine the design wind load, base shear, applied at each floor, and building overturning momer.. B) Determine the seismic base shear and overturning moment. The hospital has an average weight of 95 lb/ft² for all floors (floors and roof), and the seismic design parameters are SDS=0.35 g and SD1=0.15 g, with reinforced concrete frames and a response modification coefficient R of 8. The importance factor for seismic design is 1.5 (
