The influence of builders on seismic strengthening of housing
Trust in information sources is essential for bridging the gap between intentions to seek seismic preparedness advice and the adoption of protective measures, such as retrofitting homes. Builders are one of the most frequently consulted sources when homeowners seek to strengthen or repair their homes for earthquake resistance. While research has focused on homeowners, engineers, and the seismic risk of tall buildings, the crucial role of builders…
Predictions of Damage to Timber-Framed Houses. I
This is the first in a set of companion papers that seek to compare homeowners’ expectations and engineering predictions of damage to timber-framed houses before and after undertaking seismic structural strengthening. By combining social and engineering sciences, this multidisciplinary and innovative research contributes to ongoing work on building resilient communities. Part I analyzes the seismic vulnerability of wooden-framed houses located on…
Homeowners’ Perceptions of Seismic Building Performance and Implications for Preparedness in New Zealand
Over the last decade, engineering studies have mentioned the need for meeting societal demands of damage expectations and housing performance for major earthquakes. However, they do not refer to any systematic analysis examining such societal demands, nor have they investigated interactions of this with voluntary seismic strengthening. A questionnaire distributed to homeowners of wooden-framed houses in the Wellington region of New Zealand invest…
Predictions of Damage to Timber-Framed Houses. II
This paper is the second of two companion papers that seeks to compare homeowners’ expectations of damage and engineering predictions of damage to timber-framed houses before and after undertaking seismic structural strengthening. Part I analyzed the seismic vulnerability of wooden-framed houses located on slopes in Wellington, New Zealand, investigating factors of plan shape relative to the slope, slope variations, and wall distribution, and how…
