                                                                                                                                                    3 0 0 3

OBJECTIVES:
The  main  objective  of  the  course  is  to  introduce  dynamic  loading  and  the  dynamic performance of the structures to the students.   Different types of dynamic loading also to be discussed.   The detailed study on the performance of structures under earthquake loading is also one of the focus of the course.

UNIT I             THEORY OF VIBRATIONS                                                                                  9
Difference between static loading and dynamic loading – Degree of freedom – idealisation of structure as single degree of freedom system   – Formulation of Equations of motion of SDOF system -  D‟Alemberts principles – effect of damping – free and forced vibration of damped and undamped structures – Response to harmonic and periodic forces.

UNIT II            MULTIPLE DEGREE OF FREEDOM SYSTEM                                                  9
Two degree of freedom system – modes of vibrations – formulation of equations of motion of multi degree of freedom (MDOF) system -   Eigen values and Eigen vectors – Response to free and forced vibrations - damped and undamped MDOF system – Modal superposition methods.

UNIT III           ELEMENTS OF SEISMOLOGY                                                                            9
Elements of Engineering Seismology - Causes of Earthquake – Plate Tectonic theory – Elastic rebound  Theory  –  Characteristic  of  earthquake  –  Estimation  of  earthquake  parameters  - Magnitude and intensity of earthquakes – Spectral Acceleration.

UNIT IV          RESPONSE OF STRUCTURES TO EARTHQUAKE                                       9
Effect of earthquake on different type of structures – Behaviour of Reinforced Cement Concrete, Steel  and  Prestressed  Concrete  Structure  under  earthquake  loading  –  Pinching  effect  – Bouchinger Effects – Evaluation of earthquake forces  as per IS:1893 – 2002  - Response Spectra
– Lessons learnt from past earthquakes.

UNIT V           DESIGN METHODOLOGY                                                                                    9
Causes of damage – Planning considerations / Architectural concepts as per IS:4326 – 1993 – Guidelines for Earthquake resistant design – Earthquake resistant design for masonry and Reinforced  Cement  Concrete  buildings  –  Later  load  analysis  –  Design  and  detailing  as  per IS:13920 – 1993.


TOTAL: 45 PERIODS

At the end of the course, student will have the knowledge to analyse structures subjected to dynamic loading and to design the structures for seismic loading as per code provisions.
