SRI VIDYA COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY VIRUDHUNAGAR - 626 005

DEPATMENT OF CIVIL ENGINEERING COURSE PLAN CE 73 BASICS OF DYNAMICS AND ASEISMIC DESIGN OBJECTIVE: The main objective of this course is to introduce to the student the phenomena of earthquakes, the process, measurements and the factors that affect the design of structures in seismic areas. This objective is achieved through imparting rudiments of theory of vibrations necessary to understand and analyse the dynamic forces caused by earthquakes and structures. Further, the student is also taught the codal provisions as well as the aseismic design methodology. NO MODE OF CUMULATIV S.NO TOPIC BOOK P.NO OF TEACHING E HRS HRS UNIT 1 - THEORY OF VIBRATION
