Seismic Design of Non-Structural Components

Bridging seismic design principles with practical engineering for safer, more resilient infrastructure

While structural systems are designed to resist earthquakes, damage to non-structural components such as façades, ceilings, partitions, and MEP systems can significantly impact building functionality, occupant safety, and post-earthquake recovery. This webinar will provide valuable insights into the seismic design of these critical building elements, drawing on both Indian and international standards and best practices. What to expect: • Introduction to non-structural components and seismic hazards • Key Indian and international codes and standards • Fundamental design principles and seismic detailing strategies • Component-specific design considerations • Case studies and key lessons learned
