This lecture covers the Response Spectrum Method (RSM) for inelastic multi-degree-of-freedom systems, focusing on its implementation in codes like SIA 261. It explains how RSM is applied to irregular buildings, considering factors like effective modal masses, SRSS combination rule, and eccentricity adjustments. The lecture also details the differentiation between two types of eccentricity and the analysis requirements for forces in different directions.
