(3 units). Seismic performance assessment of new and existing buildings using modelling. Design and construction of nonlinear structural models. Accounting for mass, material behavior, damping, and nonlinear geometry. Use of pushover and time history analysis methods to determine seismic performance. Consideration of nonstructural elements in determining performance. This course is equivalent to CIVE 5108 at Carleton University. Course Component: Lecture
