  • Kaikoura Earthquake Response – a Controller's Perspective
    Kaikoura Earthquake Response – A Controller’s Perspective John Mackie, Christchurch City Council Abstract Having just dealt with the tsunami alert and the overnight evacuation of 20,000 people from coastal areas of Christchurch, following the 7.8 magnitude earthquake at two minutes past midnight on 14 November 2016, key Civil Defence personnel from Christchurch were requested to assist with the response effort in Kaikoura who had suffered severe damage as a result of the quake. This paper outlines the priorities and challenges presented to emergency personnel that were deployed to assist the community and meet their immediate needs in response to one of New Zealand's largest recorded earthquakes. The first wave of responders from Christchurch included a Controller, Emergency Operations Centre (EOC) staff including operations manager, engineering support, planning and intelligence, welfare manager and staff, building and structural engineers, who were booked to fly to Kaikoura at first light on Tuesday 15 November. In a very short space of time after arrival on Tuesday morning, the team were briefed to gain a situational awareness from the local EOC team on the extent of the known damage, emerging issues and welfare needs in the community, which they had identified over the gruelling 34 hours since the event. We understood already that there was no road or rail access to the town due to landslips and cliff collapses, but the boat harbour had been rendered almost useless due to the seismic upheaval of the coast line. One of the short term priorities was to restore a temporary water supply as it was reported that three of the town's five reservoirs were damaged and there was one day of storage remaining at normal demand.

The CDHB is responsible for promoting the reduction of adverse environmental effects on the health of people and communities and to improve, promote and protect their health pursuant to the New Zealand Public Health and Disability Act 2000 and the Health Act 1956. 3. These statutory obligations are the responsibility of the Ministry of Health and, in the Canterbury District, are carried out under contract by Community and Public Health under Crown funding agreements on behalf of the Canterbury District Health Board. General comments 4. Health and wellbeing (overall quality of life) is influenced by a wide range of factors beyond the health sector. These influences can be described as the conditions in which people are born, grow, live, work and age, and are impacted by environmental, social and behavioural factors. They are often referred to as the ‘social determinants of health1. Barton and Grant’s Health Map2 shows how various influences on health are complex and interlinked.

  • Christchurch Cathedral of the Blessed Sacrament: Lessons Learnt on the Stabilisation of a Significant Heritage Building
    Christchurch Cathedral of the Blessed Sacrament: Lessons learnt on the Stabilisation of a Significant Heritage Building J. Lester & A. Brown Opus International Consultants Ltd, Christchurch, New Zealand. J. Ingham 2012 NZSEE Conference University of Auckland, Auckland, New Zealand. ABSTRACT: The Catholic Cathedral of the Blessed Sacrament is a category 1 listed heritage building constructed largely of unreinforced stone masonry, and was significantly damaged in the recent Canterbury earthquakes. The building experienced ground shaking in excess of its capacity leading to block failures and partial collapse of parts of the building, which left the building standing but still posing a significant hazard. In this paper we discuss the approach to securing the building, and the interaction of the structural, heritage and safety demands involved in a dynamic seismic risk environment. We briefly cover the types of failures observed and the behaviour of the structure, and investigate the performance of both strengthened and un-strengthened parts of the building. Seismic strengthening options are investigated at a conceptual level. We draw conclusions as to how the building performed in the earthquakes, comment on the effectiveness of the strengthening and securing work and discuss the potential seismic strengthening methods. 1 INTRODUCTION As a result of the 4 September 2010 Canterbury earthquake and the more damaging 22 February 2011 Christchurch earthquake, considerable damage occurred to a significant number of buildings in Christchurch. In this paper the damage that occurred to the Catholic Cathedral (Basilica) following the 22 February 2011 event is considered, the approach taken to securing the building is outlined, and the performance of the building and the securing work undertaken is evaluated.

  • Case Study the Cardboard Cathedral in Christchurch, New Zealand, Is the Transitional Pro‑Cathedral of the Anglican Church Opened in August 2013
    Case Study The Cardboard Cathedral in Christchurch, New Zealand, is the transitional pro-cathedral of the Anglican Church opened in August 2013. The site, on the Cardboard corner of Hereford and Madras Streets in Latimer Square, is several blocks from the Cathedral, permanent location of Christchurch Cathedral, which was significantly damaged in the 2011 Christchurch earthquake. The Cardboard Cathedral was designed by New Zealand architect Shigeru Ban and seats around 700 people. In addition to serving as a cathedral, the building serves as a conference venue. The cathedral measures 70 feet (21 m) above the altar. Materials used in its construction include 2 feet (0.61 m) diameter cardboard tubes, timber and steel. The roof is of polycarbonate and is held up by eight shipping containers which form the walls. The foundation is heavily reinforced concrete slab. A Univox SLS No-Stop-Loop design was decided to be the best option, given the heavily reinforced concrete slab in the area where the loop was being installed. Simulation in Univox Loop Designer confirmed that it would meet IEC 60118-4 requirements for frequency response and field strength. The design offers a very uniform field strength level across the listening plane. All loop design work was done by Univox’ Australia/New Zealand distributor Audio Products Group. Christian Resource Centre in New Zealand was responsible for the installation.

  • "A Distressing Lack of Regularity": New Zealand Architecture in the 1850S Date
    "a distressing lack of regularity": New Zealand architecture in the 1850s Date: Friday 7th December 2012 Venue: School of Architecture/Te Wāhanga Waihanga, Victoria University/Te Whare Wānanga o te Ūpoko o te Ika a Māui, Wellington Convener: Christine McCarthy ([email protected]) When Colonel Mould of the Royal Engineers at Auckland reported on behalf of the New Zealand Government on Ben Mountfort's proposed accommodation for Governor Thomas Gore Browne, he queried the design's ability to be ""lastingly pleasing to the eye,"" and identified the building's "distressing lack of regularity." This conference asks whether this phrase, describing Mould's discomfort with Mountfort's picturesque design, might also describe New Zealand's built environment in the 1850s more broadly as it negotiated architectural cultural exchanges, largely resulting from incoming British settlers' "flight from flunkeydom and formality." Philippa Mein Smith refers to a William Strutt drawing to indicate its cultural hybridity, as well as "the power of the "pioneer legend,"" unpinned by the religious ideology of western commerce: "Pioneers tamed the land and, they believed, made it productive as God intended." Provincial Government and a General Assembly were established, following the British Parliament's New Zealand Constitution Act (1852), which also seemingly prompted the originator of New Zealand's systematic colonisation, Edward Gibbon Wakefield, to arrive in New Zealand in 1853. Wakefield, according to Smith, was hopeful of a political career in the colonial government, now made possible by the Act. In the 1850s significant changes to the mechanism of British government in New Zealand occurred: the end of the Crown colony (1841-1853), when a Governor, with an executive council, "ruled" the colony, the appointment of a Resident Magistrate (Archibald Shand) to the Chathams (1855), and the conclusion of George Grey's first governorship in 1853.
