Risk-Targeted Hazard Spectra for Seismic Design in New Zealand
(New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 2021-04-14)
The promotion of risk-targeted hazard spectra as the basis of seismic design internationally has increased over the past decade. Risk-targeted hazard spectra are derived through convolution of hazard curves with representative ...
Wall-to-floor connection behavior in a low-damage concrete wall building
(New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 2021-04-14)
Following the 2010/2011 Canterbury earthquakes, approximately 60% of multi-story buildings with reinforced concrete walls required demolition. Both practitioners and researchers have increasingly realized that low-damage ...
Identifying attributes influencing failure mechanisms in unreinforced masonry buildings using machine learning
(New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 2021-04-14)
Unreinforced masonry buildings comprise a major part of New Zealand's built heritage and were significantly damaged during the 2010-2011 Canterbury Earthquake sequence. There were 627 URM building assessed in the surveys ...
