developed using finite element models with
lumped seismic mass, Ritz method and static
condensation approach. The damping matrix is
defined by 2% proportional Rayleigh damping.
A 3D twenty-story frame structure with the reduced
60 DOFs is developed using the pre-determined
stiff and weak direction as shown in Figure 9. The
lateral and transversal stiffness are calculated to
eradicate zero mess degree-of-freedom (DOF).
The mass matrix M 3D20s is defined for the 3D
system as
d are longitudinal and transverse length of struc-
tures, respectively. The stiffness matrix k story of
each story is defined as (Chopra 2000)

where k xB , k y and k xC are the lateral stiffness of
the frame B, A, and C, respectively; d and e are
the distances from the center of axis to each frame
as shown in Figure 10; and the stiffness matrix
k story is extended into a global stiffness matrix
K 3D20s . The moment of inertia of the diaphragm
about the vertical axis passing through O in Fig-
ure 10 is determined by (Chopra 2000)
