Earthquake Engineering
Costruzioni in zona sismica
Teachers: Gianmarco de Felice Fabio Sabetta Sara Fares
The course provides the basic tools for the design and safety verification of civil structures in earthquake prone regions. The program includes the methodologies for the engineering representation of the seismic action, the fundamentals of the seismic behaviour of buildings, the principles of design of earthquake-resistant structures. The characteristics of earthquake motions are illustrated starting from the fault rupture, the propagation of seismic waves, up to the local registration and the engineering representation of earthquake load, and seismic hazard. The basics of the dynamic response of SDOF and MDOF systems under earthquake motions are recalled. The basic principles of design with regards to structural typologies and regularity are presented and the methods for structural analysis are illustrated. The criteria of design and detailing of structural elements in reinforced concrete are finally presented.
Program
- Seismology: faults and propagation of seismic waves
- Magnitude, macroseismic intensity, maps and seismic classification
- Seismic response of Single Degree of Freedom systems
- Seismic response of Multi Degrees of Freedom systems
- Earthquake resistant buildings: basic principles of design
- Structural typologies and criteria for structural regularity
- Structural analysis: linear and non-linear methods
- Modelling multistorey reinforced concrete buildings
- Design and safety verifications of RC structural elements
- Reference Codes and Standards
Exam modality
The exam requires the writing of an essay in seismology, the design of a multi-storey r.c. building supplied with detailed drawings and computational report. The student has to discuss the essay in seismology and then the project in the final oral exam.
