The aim of the course is to give students knowledge for the behavior of the reinforced concrete (RC) structures under earthquake and the features of the compliance design. Studied: elements of engineering seismology; basic principles of conceptual design; specifities of calculation and detailing of reinforced concrete frames, shear walls, cores, floor structures and foundations, subjected to seismic excitations; repair and strengthening of RC structures. After finishing the course students acquire additional skills for earthquake – resistant design of RC structures.
