Ground motion simulation validation with explicit uncertainty incorporation for small magnitude earthquakes in New Zealand
(2021-04-14)This study investigates the uncertainty of simulated earthquake ground motions for small-magnitude events (Mw 3.5 – 5) in Canterbury, New Zealand. 148 events were simulated with specified uncertainties in: event magnitude, ... -

Hazard-consistent collapse risk assessment of steel moment frame buildings in Wellington
(2021-04-14)This study evaluates the seismic collapse risk of two modern ductile steel moment frame buildings designed as per the NZS 1170.5 seismic design standard. A four and twelve storey steel moment frame buildings located in ... -
High capacity glued-in rod connections in Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) structures
(2023-04-19)Glued-in rods are efficient and high-capacity connections for achieving high-strength connections in new timber structures and reinforcing existing timber buildings. With the emergence of cross-laminated timber (CLT) and ... -

How effective is a composting toilet system for protecting human health in an emergency context?
(2021-04-14)The Wellington Region is highly vulnerable to large earthquakes as it is crossed by active faults. Expected timeframes of 1 to 2 years for the re-establishment of networked wastewater management services provide urgency ... -
How practitioners can work together to achieve better seismic performance outcomes for buildings and infrastructure
(2021-04-14)A key recommendation from the Canterbury Earthquakes Royal Commission was that there should be “greater cooperation and dialogue between geotechnical and structural engineers” to help improve the seismic performance of ... -
How to assemble elemental damping?
(2023-04-19)An elemental damping model has recently been proposed as an alternative to the Rayleigh damping model to avoid spurious damping forces during inelastic seismic response. It has shown great potential because it has the ...
