Identifying inanga spawning sites in plans: options for addressing post-qu…

Research papers, University of Canterbury Library

The purpose of this assessment is to compare records of known inanga spawning sites in the waterways of Ōtautahi Christchurch from before and after the Canterbury earthquakes, with particular emphasis on information used in the design of planning methods for spawning site protection.

A System Dynamic Model of Post-Earthquake Reconstruction pathways

Research papers, University of Canterbury Library

Objectives • To develop a system dynamics model of Christchurch post-quake reconstruction process that captures all the critical dynamics influencing its pathway • To investigate the implications of current rebuild pathway • To build a reconstruction module to be integrated in MERIT (Measuring the Economics of Resilient Infrastructure Tool)

RECOVER Issue 3

Post-Earthquake Decisions on RC Buildings: Lessons from Canterbury and Eme…

Research papers, The University of Auckland Library

Description: Observations of RC building performance in recent earthquakes with a special focus on the devastating events in Christchurch, New Zealand. These events have highlighted the complexity of post-earthquake decisions for damaged buildings and the impacts on communities. The presentation will reflect on factors influencing demolition decisions and emerging challenges for the earthquake engineering community. http://atc-sei.org/
