Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Consider a low-rise clinic that has been analyzed using pushover analysis. What additional considerations should be made if the clinic wishes to expand into a high-rise facility?

💡 Hint: Think about how expansion might change the structural dynamics.

Question 2

Analyze the potential consequences of not considering the assumption of invariant mode shapes in buildings that are heavily reinforced.

💡 Hint: Assess how structural reinforcement interacts with dynamic responses.
