Question 1
What is a limitation of SDOF models?
- They are too complex
- They cannot capture localized deformations
- They are never used in practice
💡 Hint: Think about what SDOF models focus on.
Question 2
Localized deformations can lead to critical structural failures. (True/False)
- True
- False
💡 Hint: Consider how localized issues can cascade into larger problems.

Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
Critically analyze the performance of an SDOF model in predicting the behavior of a high-rise building during an earthquake. Discuss potential points of failure.
💡 Hint: Consider significant structural elements and their connections.
Question 2
You have an SDOF model of a symmetric building. Identify how localized failures might occur in an asymmetric loading scenario and propose an alternative modeling approach to capture these.
💡 Hint: Think about how asymmetry affects load distribution.
