RC Ductility in Practice – Powerful Tools for Seismic Design
Master the Art of Ductile RC Design — For Real Seismic Resilience
Backstage Pass to Seismic Design
Step into the mindset of a structural engineer with 20+ years of seismic experience. See how ductility is achieved in RC elements — and what truly makes a structure resilient when the ground starts to shake.
Master Yield and Ultimate Equilibrium
Discover how to calculate when plastic behavior begins—and when the section reaches its true limit. Learn the method for achieving curvature ductility in RC elements using real material behavior and Eurocode-compliant analysis.
Design for Ductility — Beyond Code Compliance
Move from minimum design checks to real seismic performance. Learn how to spot weaknesses most engineers overlook — and transform them into ductile, code-compliant solutions that actually perform in earthquakes.
Go Beyond Minimum Code Checks
Shift your focus from standard compliance to real seismic performance. Spot hidden structural weak points most engineers miss — and transform them into ductile, reliable, earthquake-resistant designs.
How to Spot Brittle Failures Before They Happen
Gain the ability to visually recognize and analytically detect where a reinforced concrete section lacks ductility — long before it's too late. This isn’t just about meeting code; it’s about saving lives and protecting your reputation. We’ll show you how to detect red flags early, using both theory and real-time software analysis.
Design with Full Control and Confidence
Take charge of every step in the ductility workflow — from yield equilibrium to ultimate curvature. Whether using full automation or manual control, you’ll learn how to fine-tune your design process and get reliable, transparent results you can trust in seismic zones.
