Abaqus Geotech Webinar: Seismic Response of Buildings with Soil-Structure Interaction

Image
Pigso Learning is hosting a free webinar on March 1st, 2025, at 7:00 PM IST via Google Meet, focusing on the assessment of seismic response of buildings supported on pile foundations, considering soil-structure interaction (SSI). Dr. Vaibhav Mittal will lead the session. You can contact +91 8200154790 for further information. Why Attend This Webinar? This webinar will provide a detailed exploration of Soil-Structure Interaction (SSI) and its role in evaluating the seismic response of buildings with pile foundations. SSI is a critical process where the soil and structure influence each other’s motion, impacting the overall stability of buildings.  Understanding Soil-Structure Interaction (SSI) SSI involves the exchange of mutual stress, where the movement of the ground-structure system is influenced by both the type of ground and the structure type. Conventional structural design methods often neglect SSI effects, an approach that is acceptable for light structures on stiff soil....
