E7994: Building an Earthquake Resistant Structure in Splash Spring 2024 (May. 18 - 19, 2024)
Buildings in highly seismic areas, such as California and Japan, need to be designed to protect people and give them a chance to get out. There is no way to design an earthquake proof building, but engineers figure out ways to reduce damage and keep people safe. In this course we will discuss the basics of earthquake engineering and students will learn how to design earthquake-resistant structures through an interactive activity.
