Objectives
THE COURSE INTRODUCES THE STUDENT TO THE MAIN ISSUES CONCERNING THE SEISMIC ENGINEERING, REFERRING TO THE BASIC THEORY AND DESIGN PROBLEMS.
Prerequisites
FOR ACHIEVING THE GOALS IS REQUIRED BASE MECHANICAL KNOWLEDGE, WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO THE SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY OF CONSTRUCTION.
Contents
THE SEISMIC PHENOMENON
INTRODUCTION TO SEISMOLOGY AND SEISMIC CHARACTERIZATION OF THE PHENOMENON .
DESCRIPTION OF THE PRINCIPAL SEISMOTECTONIC PROBABILISTIC METHODOLOGIES - FOR THE ANALYSIS OF SEISMIC HAZARD.
SEISMIC HAZARD AND SITE EFFECTS.

ANALYSIS OF SEISMIC RESPONSE OF BUILDING
THE FREE AND FORCED RESPONSE OF SINGLE DEGREE OF FREEDOM SYSTEMS (SDOF). NUMERICAL METHODS OF INTEGRATION OF THE EQUATIONS OF MOTION.
ELASTIC RESPONSE SPECTRA.
THE SEISMIC RESPONSE OF CONCENTRATED MASSE SYSTEMS WITH MORE DEGREES OF FREEDOM (MDOF) .
METHODS OF LINEAR ANALYSIS: STATIC AND DYNAMIC.
INTRODUCTION TO NONLINEAR BEHAVIOR OF STRUCTURES SUBJECTED TO SEISMIC ACTIONS .
RESPONSE SPECTRA INELASTIC .

THE SEISMIC DESIGN OF BUILDINGS
STRUCTURAL BODIES OF EARTHQUAKE RESISTANT BUILDINGS. BRACING.
PERFORMANCE DESIGN CRITERIA. DUCTILITY AND HIERARCHY OF RESISTANCE. DESIGN SPECTRA.
THE NEW NTC2008. THE INTERNATIONAL CODES.
SPECIFIC CONSTRUCTION DETAILS FOR SEISMIC PROTECTION OF BUILDINGS .

INNOVATIVE STRATEGIES FOR SEISMIC PROTECTION
CONCEPTS OF VIBRATIONS CONTROL.
DISSIPATIVE BRACES. THE BASE ISOLATION.
SUPPLEMENTARY ENERGY DISSIPATION.
Teaching Methods
TEACHING PROVIDES THEORY LESSONS AND EXERCISES IN THE CLASSROOM. FOR THE EXERCISES IN THE CLASSROOM, A PROJECT TO DEVELOP THROUGHOUT THE COURSE IS ASSIGNED TO STUDENTS DIVIDED BY GROUPS OF WORK. THE PROJECT INCLUDES ALL CONTENTS OF THE TEACHING AND IS INSTRUMENTAL FOR THE ACQUISITION, BESIDES OF THE ABILITY TO DESIGN A C.A. FRAMED BUILDING, EVEN TO DEVELOP AND STRENGTHEN THE ABILITY TO WORK IN TEAM.
Verification of learning
THE EVALUATION OF THE GOALS ACHIEVING WILL BE DONE BY AN INTERVIEW.

More Information
IT IS PLANNED TO CARRY OUT AN EARTHQUAKE RESISTANT BUILDING PROJECT. IN THIS REGARD ARE PLANNED LESSONS AND EXERCISES AIMED TO IMPROVE THE FOLLOWING ISSUES AND PROBLEMS:
• DESIGN CRITERIA;
• REALIZATION OF DESCRIPTIVE NUMERICAL MODELS EARTHQUAKE RESISTANT STRUCTURES;
• METHODS AND PROCEDURES FOR STATIC AND DYNAMIC ANALYSIS BOTH IN LINEAR AND NON LINEAR FIELD;
• CONSTRUCTION DETAILS;
• INNOVATIVE DESIGN SOLUTIONS.
