Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
Analyze a 15-story building with substantial lateral load requirements. Discuss the potential outcomes of using a 2-DOF model versus an MDOF model for its analysis.
💡 Hint: Consider both lateral loading and dynamic response.
Question 2
Evaluate the implications of nonlinear material behavior in seismic analysis. How would a 2-DOF model provide inaccurate predictions in this context?
💡 Hint: Reflect on how materials behave under different loads.
