Abstract:

While the Kaikoura earthquake resulted in shaking over a wide region of New Zealand, the focus of this report is on damage to heavy gauge structural steel buildings located in the Wellington region. Light gauge steel framed buildings, as typically used in residential construction, have not been part of this investigation. However, reports indicate little if any damage to light steel framed houses. Damage to reinforced concrete buildings [3] in the Wellington region and to winery facilities [4] in the Marlborough region is discussed in the New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering Bulletin [5].
