SUMMARY:Prof. Jack Moehle - Performance-Based Seismic Design of Tall Buildings
DESCRIPTION:Performance-Based Seismic Design of Tall Buildings\nProf. Jack Moehle \nEd and Diane Wilson Presidential Professor of Structural Engineering\, University of California\, Berkeley \nAbstract\nWe live in a time when social\, environmental\, and economic factors in the Western United States favour the development of urban centres populated by high-rise buildings. The design of this new generation of high-rise buildings has benefited from the advancement of performance-based design methods in which structural engineers characterize expected performance for hypothesized earthquake shaking using computer simulation. The design approach has evolved rapidly – whereas a decade ago each project had its own\, project-specific basis\, today the designs are guided by a set of consensus standards. The seminar will describe the performance-based design approach and will illustrate it through the example of a tall building design in San Francisco. \nBiography\nJack Moehle received his Ph.D. from the University of Illinois and joined the U.C. Berkeley faculty in 1980. From 1991 to 2001 he was Director of the Earthquake Engineering Research Center at Berkeley\, and in 1996 he became founding Director of the multi-university Pacific Earthquake Engineering Research Center\, where he served until 2008. He has played a leading role in the development of building codes and professional engineering guidelines for the design of new construction and the assessment and rehabilitation of seismically vulnerable existing construction\, including Guidelines for Evaluation and Repair of Masonry and Concrete Walls (FEMA 306); Guidelines for Seismic Rehabilitation of Buildings (FEMA 273 and ASCE 41); Development of Next-Generation Performance-Based Seismic Design Procedures for New and Existing Buildings (FEMA P-58); and Guidelines for Performance-Based Seismic Design of Tall Buildings (Tall Buildings Initiative\, PEER). He has been a member of the ACI 318 Building Code Committee since 1989\, Chair of the Seismic Provisions subcommittee from 1995-2014\, and currently serves as the ACI 318 Chair. He is also author of the textbook Seismic Design of Reinforced Concrete Buildings published by McGraw-Hill.

SUMMARY:The collapse of the Morandi bridge:  Chronicle of a death foretold?
DESCRIPTION:Professor Alessandro Palermo from the University of Canterbury will provide a presentation on the recent Morandi bridge collapse\, concluding with some lessons learned. \nDate                            Tuesday 12th February 2019 \nTime                            Social 5.30 – 6.00 pm (Presentation from 6.00pm) \nPlace                           Beca offices – ANZ Centre 267 High St\, Christchurch Central \nSpeaker                     Professor Alessandro Palermo \nTopic                           The collapse of the Morandi bridge:  Chronicle of a death foretold? \nRSVP:                          For catering purposes\, if you wish to attend the social part\, please email helenc@lewisbradford.com by midday Thursday 7 February. \nAbstract\nOn 14 August 2018\, the Ponte Morandi\, part of the Polcevera Viaduct in Genoa\, Italy\, partially collapsed without warning killing 43 people. Despite starting to show signs of deterioration in the 1990s and a number of proposals to replace the bridge in the intervening years\, few initiatives were undertaken in a meaningful manner. \nThe presentation explores the background and design philosophy of the designer Morandi\, overviews the construction and design of the Genoa bridge and highlights the possible causes of the collapse. The presentation concludes with some lessons learnt that could be relevant to New Zealand bridge infrastructure.

SUMMARY:ASG Presentation - Transforming Construction by Prof. Campbell Middleton
DESCRIPTION:Where – Faculty of Engineering\, University of Auckland Street Level Foyer\, Symonds Street\, (Room ENG1439 / 401-439)\, Auckland.  \nAgenda \n17:30 pre-presentation refreshments \n18:00 presentation \nPlease register for this event online at: \nConstruction Transformation \nAbstract \nIt is a very exciting and challenging time in the construction sector in the UK at present. There is considerable uncertainty over the likely outcome of Brexit\, concern at the underlying causes of the recent collapse of the construction company Carillion\, and ramifications from the inquiry into the Grenfell tower block disaster. At the same time\, the UK government has recognised the very significant economic benefits that could be generated by improving the productivity and performance of the construction sector. As a result\, the government has announced a new “Transforming Construction” initiative which commits £170M of government funding\, matched by £250M from industry\, to create new construction processes and techniques. Much of this funding will focus on the development of offsite manufacturing\, digital engineering and improving productivity and skills. This presentation will give an overview of these recent developments and look in more detail at the opportunities. \nBiography \nProfessor Campbell Middleton \nLaing O’Rourke Centre for Construction Engineering & Technology\, Department of Engineering\, Cambridge University \nProfessor Campbell Middleton is the Director of the Laing O’Rourke Centre for Construction Engineering & Technology in the Department of Engineering at Cambridge University.
