where,
Zone f1 = Seismic zone coefficient. Refer Table 2 of IS:1893(Part 1)-2002.

RF f2 = Response reduction factor. Refer Table 7 of IS: 1893 (Part 1)-2002.

I f3 = Importance factor
SS f4 = Rock or soil sites factor (=1 for hard soil, 2 for medium soil, 3 for soft soil). Depending on type of
soil, average response acceleration coefficient Sa/g is calculated corresponding to 5% damping. Refer
Clause 6.4.5 of IS: 1893 (Part 1)-2002.

ST f5 = Optional value for type of structure (=1 for RC frame building, 2 for Steel frame building, 3 for all other buildings). If
this parameter is mentioned the program will calculate natural period as per Clause 7.6 of IS:1893(Part 1)-2002.
DM f6 = Damping ratio to obtain multiplying factor for calculating Sa/g for different damping. If no damping is specified 5%
damping (default value 0.05) will be considered corresponding to which multiplying factor is 1.0. Refer Table 3 of IS:
1893(Part 1

PX f7 = Optional period of structure (in sec) in X direction. If this is defined this value will be used to calculate Sa/g for
generation of seismic load along X direction.
PZ f8 = Optional period of structure (in sec) in Z direction. If this is defined this value will be used to calculate Sa/g for
generation of seismic load along Z direction.
DT f9 = Depth of foundation below ground level. It should be defined in current unit. If the depth of foundation is 30
m or below, the value of Ah is taken as half the value obtained. If the foundation is placed between the

ground level and 30 m depth, th
