Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given a building with specific mode shapes and frequencies, outline the complete steps to be performed in a modal analysis. Consider both the calculations and physical interpretations.

💡 Hint: Start with identifying shapes and move towards assessing how each contributes to overall performance.

Question 2

A tall building has been evaluated using both SRSS and CQC methods. Discuss scenarios where each might lead to different outcomes and the implications for design.

💡 Hint: Consider the interactions between modes as you think about design implications.
