| IENG 729 - Structural Dynamics and Seismic Design |
|
This course aims to acquaint graduate students and practicing engineers with theories of structural dynamics and principles of seismic design. Part one discusses concepts, theories, and methods for conducting analysis of distributed-parameter, single- and multi-degree-of-freedom systems subjected to various types of dynamic loads, including seismic excitation. Part two introduces principles of earthquake engineering and fundamentals of seismic hazards. Students learn philosophies, principles, and practices of seismic design of concrete, steel, timber, and composite structures in compliance with the National Building Code of Canada (NBCC).
