Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
Analyze a design response spectrum chart where a new building has a natural frequency of 2.0 Hz. Predict the implications if its spectral acceleration value corresponds to 0.5 g.
💡 Hint: Think about how that value affects building material choices.
Question 2
Discuss the potential risks associated with deviating from updated design response spectra in earthquake-prone areas.
💡 Hint: Reflect on past earthquakes and their impact on building standards.
