News Engineers Geoscientists Manitoba. Following the earthquake that killed approximately 2. Amatrice and other medieval centres in central Italy last week, the authorities are asking questions. According to media reports some of the buildings that collapsed, including a school, and a medieval bell tower, had been seismically retrofitted in the past few years following an earlier earthquake in the Appenine Mountain region. Retrofits to the elementary school that crumbled last week, for example, had cost US 7. Now prosecutors are asking whether negligence or fraudulent construction practices contributed to the devastation, since these seismically reinforced structures did not stand up to the 6. The quake has displaced thousands of people, destroyed homes and apartment buildings, and wrecked churches, town halls and cultural treasures dating back hundreds of years. Asked for comment, Tibor Kokai, Ph. D., P. Eng., a principal of Read Jones Christoffersen, says The school that collapsed in Italy was retrofitted, so whether they overlooked something, nobody knows. Kokai co authored the Concrete Design Handbook and is a member of the CSA A2. Standing Committee on Earthquake design. He has designed tall buildings in cities across Canada and is currently designing two 1. Toronto. Different codes in different countries specify the different levels of earthquake to design for, he says, and if you perfectly design by the code, and if the magnitude of the earthquake does not exceed what you were supposed to design for, then the building should not collapse. In short If we do things right and construct the building right, then it should stand. When it comes to retrofits, however, and here he is speaking about Canada, Kokai has concerns. The National Building Code of Canada NBCC allows special provisions for grandfathering buildings based on their past performance. It means that existing buildings only have to be upgraded to meet the latest seismic safety codes if there is a change of use, or if the owner is adding storeys to the structure, i. If there is no such change and basic checks are done according to the NBCC, then the structural engineer only needs to ensure that the building will withstand 6. That, Kokai says, leaves the building by definition 4. The grandfathering provision in the building code is based on past performance, but Kokai says this is not fully valid. When you say a building performed well for in the last 1. But did this building ever experience the maximum design earthquake, which acts horizontallyNo. So grandfathering the earthquake performance of existing buildings based on the last 4.
