How would changes to serviceability limit state design criteria impact likely repair costs?
(New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 2020-04-22)
The earthquake engineering community is currently grappling with the need to improve the post-earthquake reparability of buildings. As part of this, proposals exist to change design criteria for the serviceability limit ...
A simple method to predict floor response spectral demands on nonstructural components
(New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 2020-04-22)
This paper summarises a newly proposed practice-oriented method to predict elastic floor acceleration response spectra for estimating demands on nonstructural components. The approach builds on previous contributions in ...
