CIV ENG *727 / Structural Control and Seismic Isolation3 unit(s)
D. Konstantinidis
This course covers the analysis and design of structural systems that feature seismic isolation and/or structural control devices. The course will cover: (a) Conceptual basis of seismic isolation, seismic isolation types, mechanical characteristics of isolators; (b) Behaviour and modeling of isolation devices, response of structures with isolation devices; (c) Conceptual basis for structural control devices, types of dampers, mechanical behaviour and modeling of dampers; and (d) Design approaches and code requirements for structures using seismic isolation and energy dissipation devices.
