E – 3005 Assessment of Design Criteria and Best Practices for a Resilient Tomorrow
$250.00
This course provides a comprehensive exploration of the design criteria and best practices essential for improving community resilience in the face of natural hazards. Drawing from a high-level review of U.S. codes, standards, and reference practices, participants will learn how to evaluate and enhance the performance of buildings and infrastructure systems against flood, wind, and seismic events.
The program emphasizes design hazard characterization, performance expectations, functional recovery, and the role of interdependencies in resilience planning. It also examines the impacts of changing environmental conditions on infrastructure and identifies emerging methods to address these challenges. From buildings and water systems to electrical grids and transportation networks, the course offers insights into creating resilient systems that support sustainable communities.
In a world where natural hazards are becoming increasingly severe, the resilience of our built environment is more crucial than ever. This course delves into the principles, standards, and applications necessary to create infrastructure that not only survives but thrives under challenging conditions.
