Seismic design for structural engineers.
In Australia, we design buildings to handle earthquakes based on a set of rules from AS1170.4.
In today's video, we're going to break down a few reasons why buildings collapse when the earth starts shaking.
00:00 - Introduction
00:55 - Inadequate Distribution of Lateral Stability Elements or Irregularities
01:30 - Centre of Mass
02:00 - Centre of Stiffness
02:36 - Eccentricity, twisting, torsion
02:55 - Inter-story Drift
03:10 - AS1170.4 - eccentricity
03:48 - Soft Storey
05:00 - Materials ductility
06:10 - Strength to mass ratio
06:43 - Short Column Effect
07:52 - Connection Detailing
09:58 - Soil Failure
