Blog 17: Fourth Interview

1.      What are different methods to reduce loads that affect buildings?
2.      How does building code ASCE 7 have an effect on earthquake resistance?
3.      What are the differences between a building with more earthquake resistance and a building with less earthquake resistance?
4.      What do you recommend is the best isolator for earthquake resistance?
5.      How do you incorporate earthquake time history analysis in the buildings you have designed?
6.      What do you think is the best way to measure seismic activity?
7.      What do you believe is the best structure element for buildings to have for earthquake resistance?
8.      Besides seismic analysis, and structures, what are other ways for an engineer to make the best building design for earthquake resistance?
9.      Can you give me an example of how equivalent static analysis has benefited a building in earthquake resistance?
10.  Can you give me an example of how equivalent dynamic analysis has benefited a building in earthquake resistance?
11.  What structures do you recommend to make structures have more limber features?
12.  What other building codes have a strong impact on earthquake resistance?
13.  What do you recommend is the best software structural engineers use to test their buildings with earthquakes?
14.  What are other methods in which building can absorb the force an earthquake?
15.  Besides the foundation of the building, what other parts of a building can contribute in more earthquake resistance?
16.  Have you ever done any sort of seismic analyses on buildings? How did these seismic analyses provide earthquake resistance to a building?
17.  Besides limber and sturdy features, what other features provide a building with more earthquake resistance?
18.  What are the recent changes in earthquake resistant structures in which you had to incorporate in your buildings?
19.  What type of role does the soil beneath the building have in earthquake resistance?

20.  Can you name and explain which buildings have the most effective earthquake resistant structures and why?
