Thanks, I am just given the shear wave velocities at several depths. Based on that, how do you assume I need to compute the fundamental frequency?

Does anyone knows an approach to compute the fundamental frequency in 60 ft deep strata, given different shear wave velocities (Vs) between ground surface and 60 feet below ground?.

thanks, I thought this forum was moved somewhere else. 

Where is this sub-forum?

Were you able to sit for this exam?, Are all the references provided by the CA board useful?, what about the CA videos?

I sit for the seismic test last year, and got the results by the end of Jan of this year. I believe, since NCEES as to deal a little bit more with CA board, results should be released quicker than previous years. Maybe they will release the scores by email, of course, sending a letter by mail...

That has been one of the big confusions i have had in the seismic test. Baradar and Hiner take half height of the wall, Dr Mansour takes full height. I agree with Silva, there is only one CM in a structure. Personally, I will take only half height for computing the CM.

Hello I have been solving some problems from the 300 solved problems book by Dr. Mansour. I got a question about prob 253: In This prob, which is the same as prob No. 5 from test 1, you are asked to compute the max overturning moment. Few questions before this one, you are asked to say what...
