The document presents advanced seismic analysis and design principles for buildings, focusing on the response of structures during earthquake events and the influence of site seismicity, soil properties, and structural systems. It discusses various building codes for seismic design, including performance-based and prescriptive methods, as well as different types of structural systems such as moment frames and shear walls. Additionally, it highlights a featured project, the Aqua Condominiums, detailing its structural system and construction advantages.
