2B. Calculate the total building seismic base shear, V, in the north-south direction only.Assume the total seismic weights of each floor are: Roof = 150 kips, 3rd Floor = 700

kips,2nd Floor = 900 kips (note these are not the answers to 2A!). Use Ss = 0.616, Sj = 0.274.The lateral force resisting system is a Building Frame System with special reinforced concrete shear walls. The building capacity is more than 500 students (Risk Category Ill)and the soil site class is D.
