Question 1
What defines ductility demand?
- A measure of material type
- Maximum displacement divided by yield displacement
- Total weight of structure
💡 Hint: Think about what happens before failure.
Question 2
True or False: Ductility demand is only relevant for steel structures.
- True
- False
💡 Hint: Consider different structures, not just steel.

Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
A structure experiences a maximum displacement of 12 inches with a yield displacement of 4 inches. Calculate its ductility demand and discuss its implications for design.
💡 Hint: Remember the formula for ductility demand.
Question 2
Consider a seismic design scenario where structural materials can achieve 10% ductility. If the expected maximum displacement during an earthquake is 8 inches, calculate the yield displacement and discuss the implications.
💡 Hint: Think about how ductility impacts material choice.
