With this in mind, Drillfast partners with highly qualified engineers who will design and implement seismic solutions into plans on a case-by-case basis, considering the many factors in each project which influence compliance.
We help you navigate through the seismic maze and produce the required documentary evidence, so that everyone on site can rest assured that the seismic solution provided is in fact compliant with the requirements of the Earthquake Standard.
Seven Steps to Seismic Success
Importance Levels
There are strict performance criteria for each seismically approved product to ensure that certain structures, based on their level of performance, are able to continue to perform during a seismic event. Buildings that fall within importance level three and four are those that Drillfast has in-depth knowledge of, paired with an extensive history of working.
Performance Categories
To ensure seismic compliance, all products undergo tension and shear load testing, and if successful, are placed within one of two performance categories: C1 and C2, C2 holding a more demanding testing regime, thus a higher level of seismic compliance.
