Abstract
The shear, bending, rocking, and translational periods of cantilever beams with linearly varying shear and flexural rigidities, and with or without a concentrated mass at their top, are computed and combined to obtain a formula for the approximate evaluation of periods of framed buildings. This formula is shown to check the experimental value of the fundamental period of one wellknown building within about 5% to 10% and to cover the complete range of periods corresponding to the actual range of parameter values encountered in practice. It is suggested that a more accurate formula, possibly based on the present results, could be adopted in the codes to improve the reliability of earthquake analysis.
