    NZ - Imp 1 V Imp 2

    I am getting a fair bit of push back from engineers in NZ on imp 2 Vs imp 1 building. I think this is because when I define my building as IMP 2 the footings in seismic regions is greatly increased. I don't really like adjusting my IMP 2 vs IMP 1, based on the opinion on the footing designer. (I...

    Lee zone of a hill or Shadow for wind analysis

    For my code AS1170.2 you cannot apply a hill multiplier of less than one, even if you are in the shadow of the hill. The hill multiplier is a factor that generally takes into account the increased wind speed as you travel up a hill. However I am on the flat in the lee side of a hill (ie in...
