Question 1
What is the primary purpose of structural damping?
- To enhance aesthetic value
- To reduce vibrations during seismic events
- To increase building height
💡 Hint: Remember how structures react to sudden forces.
Question 2
True or False: Radiation damping involves energy being absorbed and held by the structure.
- True
- False
💡 Hint: Consider what happens to energy during vibrations.

Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
Design a hypothetical building system that integrates both structural and radiation damping. Describe how each type would function together.
💡 Hint: Consider different materials and joint designs that would optimize both damping types.
Question 2
Evaluate a historical earthquake event where structural failure occurred. How could improved damping mechanisms have changed the outcome?
💡 Hint: Look for post-event reports that discuss failures related to insufficient engineering in damping.
