The document outlines the scope and schedule for a two-day advanced training course on seismic assessment and repair of existing buildings. Day 1 will cover topics like the Christchurch earthquakes, geotechnical investigations, soil mechanics, seismic design issues, and retaining walls. Speakers will include Hamish, Paul, and Bishal. Day 2 will include reviewing day 1 content, seismic soil mechanics and liquefaction assessment, the Canterbury geotechnical database, and a site visit. Additional topics are slope stability and feedback. The course aims to help engineers assess and retrofit buildings to better withstand seismic activity.

I went to New Zealand 10 years ago.
I miss Nepal: “जहाँ ढुंगा ढुंगामा दे वताको वास छ जहाँ थु का थ ु कामा वगको आभाष छ यो दे श मेरो हो यो दे श मेरो हो” Structural & Geotechnical Engineers Structural Geotechnical Design Codes Well-developed Serve more as guidelines Material strength Well-defined Defining these is one of the properties (manufactured materials) main problems Size and shape Relatively simple and well- Often discontinuous and defined known only on the basis of investigations Deformation Small strains, often taken Often large strains, non- properties to be linear elastic linear, inelastic
Structural Engineers follow complex design rules to A Science
come up with “neat” designs
Geotechnical Engineers come up with acceptable
designs that meet the functional requirements, often with An Art grossly inadequate information
