Descriptive Title: Earthquake Resistant Design of Structures

Credit Units: 3 Units

Course Description:

This course deals with the fundamentals, basic concepts and applications of seismic design as well as the minimum standards for the analysis, design
and construction of earthquake resistive structures. The course covers the introduction to seismology and seismic analysis of buildings and structures, effects
of earthquake on bearing capacity, procedure for the design of earthquake resistant structures, calculation of seismic forces and dynamic analysis of
structures.

Course Learning Outcomes: At the end of the course, the students should be able to:

1. Identify earthquake engineering


2. Understand the general theory of vibration of a single and multi degree-of-freedom systems and its application to civil engineering structures.
3. Differentiate and design structural elements to resist seismic ground motions
4. Identify advanced seismic design methods
5. Acquire a thorough knowledge of the Codes and Specifications used in Earthquake Design.
6. Design civil engineering structures subject to earthquake and other lateral forces such as wind.
7. Develop design skills and proficiency.
