- 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

All your videos are great . I am learning a lot. Thank you 😀
Thanks for the compliment, Alan :) Glad you enjoy and learn from them ☺
What book would you recommend on reading on designing structures for earthquakes (or any books) for students. Also when you say masonry it sounds like you’re saying mansory 😂. However great video I have learnt a lot!
hahaha masonry and mansory is a very subtle change. Thanks for the feedback. There are lots of books, are you based in Australia?
@@bengthebrazilianengineerinAus yes i am based in australia
Your videos are amazing ! Thank you so much.
I’m a civil engineer and work in the construction industry.
I had forgotten some essential concepts of design.
Thank you very much. Glad you liked it :)
Mate, can you make a video about principal stresses pls? Cheers
what specifically? You mean like Mohr's circle, stress equations etc ? In real life you will use FEM software to find stresses.
Awesome videos, what are the softwares normally used by the practicing structural engineers in Australia?
thanks :) there are a bunch of them. RAM, RAPT, ETABS, SLB, RCB Inducta, Spacegass, Robot etc There's a video in the channel which I cover all software I use
@@bengthebrazilianengineerinAus Thank you. Can you separate which one is good for concrete, steel and timber designs please.
Sir how much an engineer in your position earns a year in Australia? Plz reply. Thanks a lot.
You can make a lot of money
Well done Gabriel. The "devil is in the details"...
Absolutely Gilberto. Great point. Thanks for watching the video.
Can I do hand calculation to work that out?
You can if the building is not too complex
Great vid. The center of ass and stiffness is very important
You mean center of Mass hahaha
@@bengthebrazilianengineerinAus 🤨😏 hahaha
