Description

This lecture covers the N2 method for transforming a MDOF system to a SDOF system, the advantages and disadvantages of the N2 method, and the visualization of different retrofit strategies. These strategies include strengthening the structure, increasing displacement capacity, reducing stiffness, increasing damping, reducing mass, and changing the building's use.
