Training Objectives
With the introduction and revision of NBC 105: Seismic Design of Buildings in Nepal, it has become increasingly important for Nepali engineers to understand and utilize the Nepal Building Code (NBC) to design resilient structures. This course introduces earthquake-resistant design and analysis based on NBC 105: 2020 standards. Participants will learn fundamental concepts of earthquake-resistant design, including material properties, load calculations, and structural analysis techniques. Additionally, the training will cover the basics of integrating structural analysis with BIM platforms, ensuring engineers can effectively use BIM for enhanced design, and coordination.
