LehrspracheEnglisch


KurzbeschreibungThe following topics are covered: behavior and non-linear response of structural systems under earthquake excitation; seismic behavior and design of moment frame, braced frame, shear wall and masonry structures; fundamentals of seismic response modification; and assessment and retrofit of existing buildings. They are discussed in the framework of risk-informed performance-based seismic design.
LernzielAfter successfully completing this course the students will be able to:
1. Use the knowledge of nonlinear dynamic response of structures to interpret the design code provisions and apply them in seismic design of structural systems.
2. Explain the seismic behavior of moment frame, braced frame and shear wall structural systems and successfully design such systems to achieve the performance objectives stipulated by the design codes.
3. Determine the performance of structures under earthquake loading using modern risk-informed performance assessment methods and analysis tools.
InhaltThis course completes the series of two courses on seismic design of structures at ETHZ. Building on the material covered in Seismic Design of Structures I, the following advanced topics will be covered in this course: 1) behavior and non-linear response of structural systems under earthquake excitation; 2) seismic behavior and design of moment frame, braced frame and shear wall structures; 3) fundamentals of seismic response modification; and 4) assessment and retrofit of existing buildings. These topics will be discussed from the standpoint of risk-informed performance-based design.
SkriptElectronic copies of the learning material will be uploaded to ILIAS and available through myStudies. The learning material includes the lecture presentations, additional reading, and exercise problems and solutions. Lectures are streamed and recorded on the ETH Video Portal.

Voraussetzungen / BesonderesETH Seismic Design of Structures I course, or equivalent. Students are expected to understand the seismological nature of earthquakes, to characterize the ground motion excitation, to analyze the response of elastic single- and multiple-degree-of-freedom systems to earthquake excitation, to use the concept of response and design spectrum, to compute the equivalent seismic loads on simple structures, and to perform code-based seismic design of simple structures. Familiarity with structural analysis software, such as SAP2000, and general-purpose numerical analysis software, such as Matlab, is expected.
