    E-Course on IS:1893-2002 (Part I)


    1

    What is expected?

    Part I: Reading Assignments are to be completed as soon as possible

    Best if you finish the reading assignments on 13 January It will help you appreciate the lecture of 14 January better

    E-Course on IS:1893 / January 2002

    Assignment 1 / slide 2

    What is expected? (contd)

    Parts II and III

    To be completed by 14 January; before I send out the solutions of these to you. Please do not send the solutions to me. Compare your answers with the solutions I will send. Feel free to go back and review the lecture while answering the questions. Some questions may not have very specific answers

    This is in line with our engineering profession wherein certain questions have no specific answers.

    Part I: Reading Assignment 1

    Read carefully IS:1893-2002 (Part I) from Foreword to Section 5 (Symbols)


    Mark whatever you find difficult to follow Also mark portions that you find interesting

    It will help you review the materials later.

    Read Earthquake Tips 1 to 5 at NICEE web site. See the following web page for the list:

    Part II: True / False

    Identify the following statements as True or False


    1.1) Earthquake Magnitude and Intensity are two different things. 1.2) Shaking intensity is expressed in Arabic numerals (for example, 6.5) 1.3) Indian seismic zone map gives probabilistic zone map. 1.4) Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA) and Zero Period Acceleration (ZPA) are same. 1.5) A rigid structure experiences same motion as that of the ground. 1.6) Base isolation technique is very effective for flexible structures.

    Part III: Questions


    1.1) What is the expected shaking intensity in seismic zone IV? 1.2) What is the likely peak ground acceleration in seismic zone IV? 1.3) How does the peak ground acceleration increase with increase in shaking intensity?
