Earthquake risk buildings

open access: yesBulletin of the New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 1991
The power to classify buildings as earthquake risk has been available to local authorities since 1968. Through provisions in the Local Government Act, local authorities could require owners to strengthen or demolish buildings so classified. Authorities throughout New Zealand have progressively taken up these powers and many unreinforced masonry ...
