a. Explain the concept of shear building model for the analysis of a
multistoreyed building frame. http.e//uuw.kiilonline.com (5)

b Determine the mass orthonormalised modeshape vectors for a system whose mass
properties and mode shapes are as given. Take m = 10000 kg.

A tyuee storeyed building frame of storey height 3.2 m and beam span 8 m is loaded on the top beam with
a UDL of 25 kN/m and the other beams carry a 121 of 35 kN/m. If the columns have a uniform moment of
inertia of 5x107 mm4 and if ‏ع‎ 22105 N/ mm2, compute the frequencies and mode shapes of the frame using
Stodola's method. (9)

Evaluate steady state response at middle level at t = 0.15 sec when a three storeyed
frame is subjected to a harmonic load of 400 Sin (1.302t) kN at top level, considering
the contribution from all the modes. Given damping ratio = 0.05 for the system and
ml = mz 20000 kg and kl 1.5k, k2 = k3 = k, where k = 160 kN/mm.
