In my opinion, stiffness of a medium tall building (say 100m) can be related to ratio of sum stiffness of all vertical members to (mass per unit area) on each floor. The variation of the ratio along height can be adopted on a suitable proportion. However, for a taller building (250 -300m), the structure may well be thought of as a open web structure for� stiffness� purposes and stiffness of the structure can again be based on ratio of stiffness of� the overall structure to mass per unit area on a typical floor.

怎样才能有一个独特的刚度在多个element, multistoreyed��structure? are we assuming a tall building which is essentially a multistoreyed structure, a SDOF one? A multistoreyed structure can be idealised only as a MDOF structure,�A shear model is itself a simplified one�else a framed model which will be difficult to analyse but, close to reality should be applied. In shear model it is very easy to construct the stiffness and the mass matrices but in a frame model consistent mass matrix cannot be constructed as easily as in shear model. From my experience I have seen shear model�provides really a good estimate of natural frequencies (even mode by mode) which is within 10% of the framed model. Books of Mario Paz, Clough and Penezian and Newman may please be referred to in this context.
