Design scenarios for piles in ground subject to liquefaction
(2020-04-22)Seismic shaking and liquefaction with its associated loss of soil strength and ground movements/deformations can be damaging to buildings and their foundations. Understanding ground behaviours and soil-structure interaction ... -
Designing for Uncertainty
(2021-04-14)Structural engineers are familiar with seismic design using a compliance pathway. This typically requires ensuring the provided capacity of structures, expressed as a single value, exceeds the seismic demand, also expressed ... -

Determining the realistic rotational stiffness of column base connections in steel seismic resisting systems
(2021-04-14)The New Zealand Steel Structures Standard, NZS 3404, provides an upper and lower rotational stiffness boundary for fixed and pinned column base connections for structural analysis, respectively. These boundaries aim to ... -

Developing Construction 4.0 transformation of Aotearoa New Zealand's construction sector
(2023-04-19)Aotearoa’s construction industry reached over $20.5 billion in 2019 and it became the fourth largest workplace in the year ended June 2021, significantly contributing to New Zealand’s economy. However, it has long been ... -
Developing guidelines for the seismic assessment of glazing systems
(2020-04-22)There is an increasing recognition that the seismic performance of buildings will be affected by the behaviour of both structural and non-structural elements. In light of this, work has been progressing at the University ... -
Developing hysteresis curves for the optimised sliding hinge joint with asymmetric friction connections
(2020-04-22)The semi-rigid Sliding Hinge Joint (SHJ) beam-column connection for steel moment resisting frames is a successful low damage system that shows a lot of promise in earthquake engineering. It allows for relative beam-column ... -
Developing LSN-based pipe repair rate functions utilising data from the 2011 Canterbury earthquakes
(2021-04-14)The Canterbury Earthquake Sequence adversely impacted built, economic and social environments. This included widespread physical damage to the water supply pipe network in Christchurch, resulting in long service disruptions. ... -
Development and implications of an expanded national earthquake catalogue for New Zealand
(2021-04-14)In the last two decades, New Zealand (NZ) has experienced significant earthquakes, including the 2010 M 7.2 Darfield, 2011 M 6.2 Christchurch, and 2016 M 7.8 Kaikōura events. Amongst these large events, tens of thousands ... -

Development of Dissipative Controlled Rocking Bridge Columns on Monopile Foundations
(2021-04-14)In this research, a low-damage seismic design detail is developed for bridge columns supported on monopile foundations. The low-damage system aims to minimise, and potentially eliminate, the repair time and costs to a ...
