📍Module 4: Seismic Design of Structural Components (Week 4)

• Seismic design principles:

  • Ductility and avoiding brittle failure.

  • Seismic detailing of beams and columns.

• Shear Walls: Function, behavior, and design.

• Detailing for seismic resistance:

  • Reinforcement confinement at critical regions.

  • Seismic joints and beam-column connections.
