EQRNet: New Zealand's densest urban seismic monitoring network
(2020-04-22)An ultra-dense urban earthquake monitoring and effects management system is presented. We describe our learnings from the 2016 M 7.8 Kaikōura earthquake and how these motivated us to create a globally unique system of ... -

Establishing the Transverse Load Capacity of a Timber-framed Classroom Block
(2023-04-19)In 2013, longitudinal testing of single storey timber-framed classroom blocks was initiated by the Ministry of Education and completed by BRANZ to better understand the seismic resilience of timber-framed buildings within ... -
Estimates of site periods from mHVSR analysis of IRIS temporary seismograph networks
(2023-04-19)The effects of soil stratigraphy and sedimentary basins on earthquake ground shaking are well-established. These effects can be represented using a range of site metrics, with the focus of this paper being the fundamental ... -
Estimating deformation demands on steel EBF systems
(2020-04-22)The deformation capacity of a steel eccentrically braced frame (EBF) structure is typically governed by the chord rotation capacity of the EBF links. Codes allow these chord rotation demands to be estimated a variety of ... -
Estimation of base isolated structure responses

Estimation of electricity supply restoration time with interdependencies under cascading hazard risk approach
(2024-04-09)The electricity infrastructure network functions as a system with several components interconnected and distributed over a region. When subjected to earthquake and its related cascading hazards, the vulnerable components ... -
Evaluating and Communicating Seismic Risk for Low Rating Buildings
(2024-04-09)There are many challenges for owners and occupiers of buildings where seismic assessments produce ratings of less than 34%NBS, including addressing questions about whether they should continue to occupy the building. MBIE’s ... -
Evaluating the benefits of rocking shallow foundations
(2024-04-09)Rocking foundations can offer significant benefits both in terms of seismic performance and reduced embodied carbon. This paper applies a displacement-based design procedure to achieve a rocking foundation for a multi-storey ... -
Evaluating the Effect of Initial Gravity Forces in Buckling-Restrained Brace Frame Braces
(2024-04-09)It is common practice to design buckling-restrained braces (BRBs) for seismic forces only, and to neglect any initial gravity that occurs in them. This practice assumes that these gravity loads simply “shed” upon first ... -
Evaluation of a geospatial liquefaction model using land damage data from the 2016 Kaikoura earthquake
(2021-04-14)Earthquake induced liquefaction and lateral spreading can cause major damage to buildings and infrastructure networks. Common procedures to identify exposed areas such as cone penetration testing require extensive resources ...
