Department: Civil Engineering
The workshop in brief: The purpose of the earthquake-resistant building workshop was to gather experts and academicians and educate engineers, architects, and builders on how to design and construct buildings that can withstand the effects of earthquakes. The workshop covered the following topics: High rise building resonance and structural stability Seismic design provisions of buildings according to ASCE-22-7 Structural health monitoring for vibration and earthquake detection.
Participants: +50 Academicians, Engineers Form Municipality and From The Construction Sector And Students.
Place: Tishk International University Sulaimani-Conference Hall

Here are the six outcomes of the workshop:
1. Increased knowledge of seismic activity: Participants will learn about the science behind earthquakes, including how they occur and the different types of seismic waves.
2. Understanding building codes: Participants will become familiar with local building codes and regulations related to earthquake-resistant construction.
3. Designing for safety: Participants will learn how to design buildings that prioritize safety during an earthquake, including strategies for minimizing damage and protecting occupants.
4. Material selection: Participants will gain knowledge about different materials that can be used in earthquake-resistant construction, such as reinforced concrete or steel frames.
5. Construction techniques: Participants will learn about construction techniques that can help improve a building’s ability to withstand earthquakes, such as base isolation or dampers.
6. Collaboration: The workshop may provide opportunities for architects, engineers, and builders to collaborate on projects and share ideas for improving earthquake-resistant design practices.
