Case Study #26
Brisbane Airport International Terminal: Multi-Level Carpark 2, Brisbane, QLD
Client:
Scope:
Seismic investigation for the provision of a site-specific response spectrum, including shear wave velocity (Vs) from on-site testing to assist the structural stability design. The results of this component were then used to analyse and report as to whether ground beams were required to control differential displacement of foundations under seismic loading.
More than 30 spot soundings were carried out using a Seismic Weight Drop (SWD) system for the seismic source. Work was carried out during the night to avoid disruption to normal traffic and pedestrians.
