This course presents the response spectrum method of earthquake response analysis/design of mechanical and electrical equipment and supports. Equipment and supports are modeled as a single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) system. No prior knowledge of structural vibration analysis or earthquake analysis is required to understand this course.
Learning Objectives
Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:
- Explain the response spectrum method for earthquake response analysis of equipment.
- Model equipment and supports as a damped single-degree-of-freedom system.
- Calculate the natural frequency and period of a single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) system.
- Determine the maximum acceleration, velocity, displacement, and force using the response spectrum method.
Certificate of Completion
You will be able to immediately print a certificate of completion after passing a multiple-choice quiz consisting of 10 questions. PDH credits are not awarded until the course is completed and quiz is passed.
