Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A new building is being designed at a height of 25 meters. Calculate its natural period using the appropriate formula for a steel frame. Discuss the implications of this value for seismic design.

💡 Hint: Substitutes the height into the formula and analyze the result.

Question 2

A 12-meter tall RC structure experiences significant sway during an earthquake. Explain how the design could have incorporated IS 1893:2016 formulas to mitigate this issue.

💡 Hint: Revisit the formulas to analyze how they impact design elements.
