Planning Shake-Table Testing of a Three-Story Low-Damage Steel Frame Building
(2018)
INTRODUCTION
As part of QuakeCoRE research into the reparability of structures, the ROBUST (RObust BUilding SysTem) BUILDING SYSTEM TESTING programme is a collaborative NZ-Chinese project involving the 2-D shaking table ...
Smart Seismic Cities
(Quake CoRE, 2017)
Introduction
The effectiveness of disaster planning and post-disaster response efforts is heavily reliant on the rapid availability of situational information, such as high-level estimations of extents of damage, loss of ...
Experimental Evaluation of Alternative Low Damange Solutions for Reinforced Concrete Walls
(2017)
Four half-scale concrete walls with different low damage solutions are currently being tested at the University of Auckland, New Zealand. Low damage alternatives were selected based on literature review and discussion with ...
ILEE-QuakeCoRE proposed Shake-Table Test of A Low-Damage concrete Wall Building
(2017)
The increasing need to reduce damage and downtime of modern buildings in addition to life-safety has led to the development of the low-damage design philosophy where the earthquakes can be resisted by structures with damage ...
Key Parmeters in Pre-Event Data Collection for Emergency Response and Seismic Loss Estimation for Buildings
(2017)
Abstract
This study provides a simplified methodology for pre-event data collection to support a faster and more accurate seismic loss estimation. Existing pre-event data collection frameworks are reviewed. Data gathered ...
Development of an Earthquake Casualty Model for New Zealand
(2018)
In the past 8 years, earthquakes in New Zealand have injured over 12,000 people and killed 187. This has had a huge impact on the affected individuals, families, businesses and communities across the country. Understanding ...
Simplified Performance Based Design/Assessment: Towards an Improved SAC-FEMA Approach
(2018)
Probabilistic seismic assessment offers a rational means of quantifying the risk posed by earthquakes. However, rigorous probabilistic seismic assessment and design methods are quite onerous and require a considerable level ...
Development of a Seismic Damage Prediction Model Using Machine Learning
(2018)
Natural catastrophes are increasing worldwide. They are becoming more frequent but also more severe and impactful on our built environment leading to extensive damage and losses. Earthquake events account for the smallest ...
FP3: Coordinated Project - Multidisciplinary Approach for a Resilient Wellington CBD
(2018)
Building inventory database is created for Wellington, whose ultimate aim is to assist the generation of research on the risks, impacts, and viable solutions for reducing the seismic risk of existing multi-story ...
FP3: Coordinated Project - Multidisciplinary Approach for a Resilient Wellington CBD
(2018)
We describe the creation of a building inventory database developed for Wellington, whose ultimate aim is to assist the generation of research on the risks, impacts, and viable solutions for reducing the seismic risk of ...
