About Company

The programme leaders have excellent and relevant track records over past decades in R&D and industry implementation. Their work is internationally recognised. Protect and Add Value: Our research will upgrade the performance of the seismic-resisting systems to which it is applied from 'controlled damage' to 'No Damage' via easy-to-implement outcomes. The research programme is carefully planned to provide a smooth and easy transition from creating only life safe buildings to creating highly resilient buildings. This includes eliminating damage to new and existing buildings in future severe earthquakes and fires, through minimal additional cost or complexity.

Key Outputs of this Research Programme

Publications like Journals, Papers, Thesis and Design Guides are one of the most critical component of any research programme. It is only through publications that the whole research id doccumented and one gets to know how the research evolved, progressed, completed and succesfully achieved.
