This talk will cover technical and sociopolitical issues surrounding the San Ramón Fault (SRF) in Chile with an emphasis on seismic hazard assessment and the challenges of seismic risk governance spanning beyond engineering.

Join the 2024 John Mitchell lecture to hear what we can learn from seismic engineering approaches in the development of resilient and flexible designs.

The join us for this webinar on the engineering challenges faced during the construction of the Ayia Napa marina twisting towers in Cyprus. These buildings were a challenge not only for the design structural engineer but also for the contractors, and represent a feat of modern engineering.

Flavia De Luca, expert in Structural and Earthquake Engineering, presents a webinar on the challenges of assessing seismic vulnerabilities of schools in Nepal and other data-scarce environments.

This lecture provides an overview of post-processing in the field of seismic analysis. Current methods outlined in Eurocode 8 and ASCE 4 will be discussed, as well as more sophisticated methods, which have been deployed recently in the UK nuclear new build sector.

The lecture will provide insights from 35 years of experience in seismic hazard studies for major engineering projects around the world as well as work as an expert witness on several earthquake-related disputes.

An overview of the seismic hazard assessment commissioned by Horizon Nuclear Power for the Wylfa Newydd site.

A recently published report presents new national seismic hazard maps for the UK that have been developed to update the advice given to engineers about designing structures for earthquake resistance.

This talk will cover the topic of hazard-consistent assessment of Steel Moment Resisting Frames (MRFs) and timber self-centring rocking structures.

 A project supported by ICE and carried out by experts at the British Geological Survey has updated the UK’s seismic hazard maps to assist with the implementation of Eurocode 8. 

The seminar discusses the engineering and societal challenges in the conservation of heritage structures in Historic Cairo. Focus is given to the assessment and rehabilitation of old structural masonry elements.

In this lecture the Society for Earthquake and Civil Engineering will be presenting the most recent ground-motion model for the United Kingdom developed as part of a project funded by the Royal Academy of Engineering and in collaboration with Jacobs.
