Post-earthquake building assessments
Bulletin of the New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 2023 Major seismic events occurring around urban centres often cause widespread damage to the building stock. Engineers are then required to perform safety inspections of these buildings. This process may be time-consuming and can cause residents or businesses to be displaced for a considerable duration even if the building is safe to occupy.
