Answer Posted / mohammed aijaz hussain

Volume of Dry Mortar = 35% of volume of Brickwork

Volume of Mortar required = 0.35 X 1 = 0.35 cu.m.

Cement required = 1/6 X 0.35 = 0.058 cu.m. = 1.67 Bags

Sand required = 5/6 X 0.35 = 0.292 cu.m.

Bricks required = 500 Nos.

I used Etabs software to analyse a high-rise building. And I want to use templated UBC-codes inside to calculate the Seismic load. My question is: whether or not I have to control the seismic load by base shear load which is manual calculation? (just for more clarification: I can control this by input the scale factor into Eartquake definition in Etabs) I would highly appreciate your answer.
