I know this isn't residential, but in the news it has been anounced that a few schools in the Vancouver area are going to be getting earthquake-resistance upgrades.

ReplyDeleteHey Anika,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the links about the school. Although The building itself isn't specifically related to my topic, after further investigation, I found some of the seismic upgrade methods they were planning were very similar to the methods I was researching.
Thank You
ReplyDeleteI just wanted to thank everyone for helping me out on my research topic. I thought I knew exactly what report I wanted to write about, but blogging with the class has made me realize that there is more options out there. My thesis will be the same but how I get there may change.
