Impact
Documented the performing-arts centre’s response after the earthquake, distinguishing the main auditorium from its attached portion.
Challenge
The Kaikōura earthquake prompted assessment of a complex venue with a main auditorium and connected structure.
STRAAM approach
STRAAM completed an eight-hour campaign with five triaxial accelerometers sampling at 200 samples per second and nine traveler positions.
Result
The work recorded how the main auditorium and attached area responded after the earthquake, giving the project team a reference for structural evaluation.
