Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Design a basic response spectrum analysis for a 2-DOF system with given properties, including calculating modal participation factors and total displacement based on a specific earthquake ground motion.

💡 Hint: Focus on each step methodically; start with identifying the modes and their characteristics.

Question 2

Evaluate how using CQC over SRSS affects the results of a response spectrum analysis for two closely spaced frequencies. Discuss potential risks in a structural context.

💡 Hint: Consider how the interaction between closely spaced modes might change the expected results.
