Question 1
What does 'infinitely rigid' mean in the context of building analysis?
- Floors have significant deflections
- Floors do not deform
- Floors deform minimally
💡 Hint: Think about how rigidity affects behavior during loads.
Question 2
True or False: SDOF systems only consider vertical displacement during seismic analysis.
- True
- False
💡 Hint: Consider the effects of earthquakes.

Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
Consider a building modeled as an SDOF system. Discuss the implications of not accounting for local deformation in the design phase. What problems could arise?
💡 Hint: Think about the significance of detailed analysis in the real world.
Question 2
Analyze a scenario where a structure experiences both lateral and vertical seismic forces. Explain how the assumptions in SDOF idealization might limit the understanding of the building's performance.
💡 Hint: Reflect on scenarios involving taller or more flexible structures.
