Question 1

What does spectral acceleration represent?

  • The distance a building moves during an earthquake
  • The response of a structure to ground motion
  • The weight of a structure

💡 Hint: Consider how we measure building responses to earthquakes.

Question 2

True or False: The design spectrum is not affected by soil type.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Recall how soft vs hard soil impacts building stability.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Design a structural analysis plan for a building on soft soil, explaining the necessary steps and factors involved using the Design Spectrum.

💡 Hint: Focus on how soft soil characteristics change standard structural approaches.

Question 2

Evaluate the different building codes and their adaptations in seismic zones, especially in terms of soil interactions and design specs.

💡 Hint: Think through how structural integrity is maintained under various conditions.
