超巨大地震に備える - 鉄骨造建物の最新の取組 - 2017

Learn about preparing for mega-earthquakes and the latest developments in steel-frame building construction in this public lecture from Kyoto University's Faculty of Engineering. Associate Professor Yuji Koetaka from the Department of Architecture presents a comprehensive overview of seismic design evolution, examining historical earthquake damage, current seismic design methods, and cutting-edge research for mega-earthquake preparedness. Starting with an introduction to the fundamentals, explore how past earthquake damage has influenced the development of seismic design methods, understand current approaches to earthquake-resistant construction, and discover the latest research initiatives aimed at protecting steel-frame buildings from catastrophic seismic events. Recorded at Kyoto University's Yoshida Campus on August 6, 2017, this lecture provides valuable insights into modern structural engineering approaches for earthquake resilience.
