About Us

The programme leaders have excellent and relevant track records over past decades in R&D and industry implementation. Their work is internationally recognised. Protect and Add Value: Our research will upgrade the performance of the seismic-resisting systems to which it is applied from 'controlled damage' to 'No Damage' via easy-to-implement outcomes. The research programme is carefully planned to provide a smooth and easy transition from creating only life safe buildings to creating highly resilient buildings. This includes eliminating damage to new and existing buildings in future severe earthquakes and fires, through minimal additional cost or complexity.
  • Precise and accurate highly resilient seismic-resisting systems
  • Establishing the optimum fire protection design
  • Minimizing Post Earthquake Direct & Indirect Costs
  • Controlled Damage to “No Damage” Concept
  • Disruptive technology for existing & new buildings
  • New Zealand Technology for International Markets
