101 Earthquakes VS Buildings Engineering
Learn about the impact of earthquake waves on buildings and the importance of ductility and flexibility in resisting earthquakes. Understand how buildings twist during ground motion and the significance of architectural concepts in their behavior during earthquakes. This course aims to provide a clear understanding of buildings’ behavior during earthquakes and how to enhance their resistance to ground shaking. Suitable for civil engineers, both undergraduate and postgraduate, as well as junior structural engineers interested in the basics of buildings’ behavior during earthquakes. Short videos and quizzes ensure essential information without wasting time. Join now!
What you’ll learn
- How earthquake waves affect buildings
- Importance of buildings’ Ductility & Flexibility in resisting earthquakes
- How buildings twist during ground motion
- Importance of buildings architectural concept in their behavior during earthquakes
The intent of this course is to give you a steady clear idea about buildings behavior during earthquakes and how it’s possible to enhance its behavior in resisting ground shaking.
The importance of this course is giving the engineer the capability to optimize the adopted structural system behavior and be able to understand from where came the standards’ requirements.
Multiple concepts and important subjects will be covered in a straight forward manner, short videos and quizzes, in order to provide the essential information without wasting your time.
