The course focuses on seismic loading and design codes, conceptual seismic design principles and analysis for seismic loading, and design and detailing of structural members.
By the end of the course, you should be able to:
Identify situations where earthquake loading must be included in the design of structures and how to define this loading
Understand the basic principles of seismic design and select appropriate performance requirements for structures subjected to earthquake loads
Select an appropriate structural configuration for a building situated in a seismic zone
Analyse a building for seismic loading
Design and detail reinforced concrete structures
Appreciate seismic design and detailing of steel and steel-concrete composite structures and highway bridges

Academic/Researcher
Dr Giaralis is Associate Professor at Khalifa University, Abu Dhabi, leading the S3I research group on Smart Sustainable Structures and Energy Infrastructure, and Visiting Professor at City, University of London (CUoL). His research output documented in over 100 peer-reviewed articles are in structural dynamics with emphasis on wind and earthquake engineering applications focusing on probabilistic analysis methods and on vibration control and monitoring for high-performing structures.
Dr Miguel Bravo-Haro is a Lecturer in Sustainable and Structural Engineering in the department of Civil Engineering at CUoL. His areas of research span from earthquake and seismological engineering, digital infrastructure and condition monitoring to data-driven and structural health monitoring. He has worked on applications of data-driven algorithms for early damage detection of railway bridges, development of low-cost sensors for structural monitoring in seismic regions and probabilistic methods applied to engineering problems.
