These mid-month reports coincide with financial reporting to LSA, and aim to brief the participants in Make-Shift Steering Group and Strategy meetings, set for Tuesday 25 October. Wet weather has curtailed a few outdoor sessions for volunteers, but overall this has been a productive period. We have new volunteers coming forward most weeks, additional sponsors secured and more sites being offered than we can work on at once, so a wait list is emerging. In Sept - our daffodils on Victoria Street and at right - Headlines are: de-construction of Victoria Green has begun, with relocation of gabions under Kowhai flower buds look healthy although the way to three sites; landscape designs are prepared for these three sites and commissioned for transplanted trees have lost many leaves after their a new roadside trio near the Lichfield Temporary Bus Exchange; outdoor furniture has been move to planters.

Over $1,300 more has arrived in donations in September through the ‘Silty’ block sales by Urban Paving Ltd. An additional site in Ferry Road has been informally surveyed and feasibility assessment started.

We wish to thank Roy Montgomery for critically reviewing the report. Abstract The study contributes to a better understanding of utilisation and interaction patterns in post-disaster temporary urban open spaces. A series of devastating earthquakes caused large scale damages to Christchurch’s central city and many suburbs in 2010 and 2011. Various temporary uses have emerged on vacant post-earthquake sites including community gardens, urban agriculture, art installations, event venues, eateries and cafés, and pocket parks.

  • Seismic Ratings for Degrading Structural Systems
    205 GEOTECHNICAL ASPECTS OF THE 22 FEBRUARY 2011 CHRISTCHURCH EARTHQUAKE Misko Cubrinovski1, Brendon Bradley1, Liam Wotherspoon2, Russell Green3, Jonathan Bray4, Clint Wood5, Michael Pender2, 6 7 8 1 John Allen , Aaron Bradshaw , Glenn Rix , Merrick Taylor , Kelly Robinson1, Duncan Henderson1, Simona Giorgini1, Kun Ma1, Anna Winkley1, Josh Zupan4, Thomas O’Rourke9, 10 11 Greg DePascale , Donnald Wells SUMMARY The 22 February 2011, Mw6.2-6.3 Christchurch earthquake is the most costly earthquake to affect New Zealand, causing 181 fatalities and severely damaging thousands of residential and commercial buildings, and most of the city lifelines and infrastructure. This manuscript presents an overview of observed geotechnical aspects of this earthquake as well as some of the completed and on-going research investigations. A unique aspect, which is particularly emphasized, is the severity and spatial extent of liquefaction occurring in native soils. Overall, both the spatial extent and severity of liquefaction in the city was greater than in the preceding 4th September 2010 Darfield earthquake, including numerous areas that liquefied in both events. Liquefaction and lateral spreading, variable over both large and short spatial scales, affected commercial structures in the Central Business District (CBD) in a variety of ways including: total and differential settlements and tilting; punching settlements of structures with shallow foundations; differential movements of components of complex structures; and interaction of adjacent structures via common foundation soils. Liquefaction was most severe in residential areas located to the east of the CBD as a result of stronger ground shaking due to the proximity to the causative fault, a high water table approximately 1m from the surface, and soils with composition and states of high susceptibility and potential for liquefaction.

  • How the Canterbury Earthquake Sequence Led to a Departure from Concrete Technologies
    A CHANGE OF SCENE: HOW THE CANTERBURY EARTHQUAKE SEQUENCE LED TO A DEPARTURE FROM CONCRETE TECHNOLOGIES Morten Gjerde 1 School of Architecture, Victoria University of Wellington, P.O. Box 600, Wellington, 6140, New Zealand Over time, nature can expose even the slightest weakness. This became very clear following a sequence of unexpected earthquakes that struck in Christchurch, New Zealand earlier this decade. At the time the quakes struck, research and development with concrete building technology Canterbury had gained an international reputation and contributed significantly to the region's development. Structural and architectural innovation helped make concrete the material of choice for new commercial buildings. The paper outlines some of the key architectural and structural innovations evident in the buildings of the city. The earthquake sequence exposed several shortcomings in the design, construction and maintenance of buildings, including to several buildings that represent key moments along the innovation pathway. Now that the rebuild is well under way it is becoming clear with every building that is completed that the city’s visual character will be significantly different. The emerging character appears to be developing around the global materials of steel and glass, with concrete no longer featuring in the ways it had. The paper discusses the background to this departure and how it signals the end of a productive period of innovation with this local material. Keywords: Christchurch earthquakes, performance, concrete, disaster, innovation INTRODUCTION Throughout its brief history of post-colonial settlement, and prior to the widespread losses arising from the 2010-12 seismic sequence, Christchurch had gained a well-deserved reputation for the quality of its built environment.

  • Cheryl Lucas New Pots for Old
    Cheryl Lucas New Pots for Old am constantly fascinated by the ways in which artists respond to external challenges. But no-one expects encounters such as those faced by residents of the city of Christchurch in the South Island of New Zealand when it was shaken by a series of massive and destructive Iearthquakes. These centred on the outskirts of the city in September 2010, in Christchurch itself in February 2011 and the neighbouring port of Lyttelton on Banks Peninsula in June 2011. All had repercussions in the wider region, and were followed by well over 14,000 aftershocks. Since that time, Cheryl Lucas, a well-known ceramics artist working in Lyttelton, has adapted her making skills to enable the hand production of roof finials, decorative tiles, bricks and chimney pots to replace originals lost from some of the city’s heritage buildings. While Māori have inhabited Aotearoa New Zealand for at least 1000 years, European colonisation was comparatively recent, starting early in the 19th century. Nonetheless, many buildings from that time and in subsequent decades are valued for their history; this is Grace Cochrane describes the particularly relevant for Christchurch as in 1856 it was the first New Zealand settlement reconstruction of chimneys in the to be designated a city. aftermath of the New Zealand Dozens of buildings were destroyed or severely damaged during the earthquakes earthquakes and by the consequent effects of liquefaction, where water-soaked layers of sand and silt beneath the surface squirted through cracks of the ground, further destabilising it and wrecking buildings above.

  • 402 Montreal Street, Christchurch
    DISTRICT PLAN –LISTED HERITAGE PLACE HERITAGE ASSESSMENT – STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE HERITAGE ITEM NUMBER 391 DWELLING AND SETTING– 402 MONTREAL STREET, CHRISTCHURCH PHOTOGRAPH: M. VAIR-PIOVA, 2014 HISTORICAL AND SOCIAL SIGNIFICANCE Historical and social values that demonstrate or are associated with: a particular person, group, organisation, institution, event, phase or activity; the continuity and/or change of a phase or activity; social, historical, traditional, economic, political or other patterns. The dwelling at 402 Montreal Street has historical and social significance for its connection to Reverend John Aldred and Joseph Colborne Veel. The dwelling was built in 1878 when builder Henry Haggerty leased the property from the Rev. John Aldred and raised a mortgage to build on the site. Rev. Aldred, after whom Beveridge Street was once named, was an ordained Wesleyan minister, had arrived in New Zealand in 1840. He settled in Christchurch in 1854 as one of the first Wesleyan clergyman in the town and was granted land in Durham Street North by the Superintendent in 1856. Aldred was sent to Dunedin in 1864 but he later returned to live in St Albans. Haggerty encountered financial difficulties and sold the property to Dan Griffiths in 1882. Griffiths owned it for 10 years before Joseph Colborne Veel purchased part of the property in a mortgagee sale. Oxford-educated, Veel arrived in New Zealand in 1857, where he joined Page 1 the staff of The Press and subsequently became editor, a position he held until 1878. Veel also served on the Canterbury College Board of Governors and was secretary to the North Canterbury Education Board.
