Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

A site has three layers of soil with varying stiffness. If the input motion at bedrock yields 0.5g acceleration, how would this transform at the surface considering the soil types?

💡 Hint: Review the soil properties and their relevance.

Challenge 2 Hard

Evaluate how changing soil properties from stiff to soft would affect the site response analysis results. What theoretical outcomes would you expect?

💡 Hint: Think about how soft soils behave during seismic events.
