Use the Simplified Alternative Procedure in ASCE 7-10 Chapter 12, Section 12.14 to answer this question. Assume that the building meets the limitations described therein. A two-story building with the following characteristics has a bearing wall system consisting of light-frame (cold-formed steel) walls sheathed with wood structural panels rated for shear resistance. A certain shear wall in the building is 100 feet long by 22 feet tall and weighs 15 psf. Determine the seismic base shear, V, for the wall.Risk Category ISite Class DSS = 0.25, S1 = 0.10
