    1. The document describes a simplified static force procedure (NSCP 2015) for calculating seismic design forces on structures that meet certain regularity requirements. 2. The total design base shear (V) is calculated as 3% of the total seismic dead load (W) multiplied by a seismic coefficient (Ca) and divided by a response modification factor (R) from tables. 3. The total design base shear is distributed vertically to each floor by multiplying the portion of seismic dead load at each floor by the seismic coefficient and dividing by the response modification factor.

    The key takeaways are that the Simplified Static Force Procedure is used to calculate the design base shear and distribute it vertically and horizontally for seismic analysis of structures conforming to certain criteria. The total design base shear is calculated as a percentage of the total seismic dead load based on soil type and structural properties. Irregular structures are excluded from using this procedure.

    The steps involved in the Simplified Static Force Procedure are to first calculate the total design base shear as a percentage of the seismic dead load based on soil type and a numerical coefficient. The total design base shear is then distributed vertically to each floor based on the portion of seismic dead load. The shear is then summed at each floor for the horizontal distribution.

    The types of structural irregularities considered in this procedure are vertical irregularities including soft story, mass, geometric and discontinuity irregularities. Horizontal irregularities include torsional, reentrant corner, diaphragm and offset irregularities.
