4 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What are the four seismic zones of India?
Think about the risk level associated with them.
What is the importance factor for hospitals in seismic zones?
Consider how essential hospitals are during earthquakes.
What represents the severity of ground shaking in seismic zones?
Look for the term directly linked to seismic risk classifications.
True or False: Ductile detailing is only required for buildings in Zone I.
Consider where most seismic activity occurs.
A multi-story building in Zone III has a dead load of 500 kN and a live load of 200 kN. Calculate its seismic weight and base shear if Z = 0.2 and I = 1.0.
Combine dead and live loads accurately for total weight.
Describe how a structure can be retrofitted for better seismic resistance using base isolators.
Consider how flexibility can improve stability during quakes.
