Seismic Design of Bridge as per AASHTO & Eurocode / Response Spectrum / Pushover / Time-history

Seismic analysis and design remains a topic of slight controversy among engineers today. Delivering for the rigorous requirements for seismic analysis stipulated by most codes is usually time consuming and adds to overall project costs. Consequently many engineers in non-seismic zones simply prefer to apply nominal design provisions without much calculation. But with the advent of modern codes as well as in the wake of several recent seismic catastrophes, engineers are reconsidering their perspective on seismic resistance for structures. This web session will aim to highlight the basic requirement of seismic analysis and walk the attendees through the various methods available for Seismic analysis of Bridge structures, simultaneously demonstrating the capabilities of midas Civil in handling these kinds of analysis. Learning Objective: 1. Selection of suitable method for seismic analysis and design 2. Response Spectrum & Eigenvalue Analysis 3. Pushover Analysis 4. Inelastic Time History Analysis You can download midas Civil trial version and study with it: https://hubs.ly/H0FQ60F0
