Kevin Zwaagstra of RJC’s structural group addresses the myth of non-seismic zones in Canada, and what building owners should do to ensure they're up to code.

Building failures of this horrific scope are seldom seen in North America. But it is important to examine what happened so we can learn and prevent similar collapses in the future.

Andrea Mucciarone of RJC Engineers discusses the building façade restoration process, from spotting early signs of failure through to project completion.

Generally, the purpose of a forensic engineering investigation is to determine the root cause of a building failure and how it may be addressed, with the intent of improving the performance of the building.

The Grandview Heights Aquatic Centre in Surrey, B.C. has been recognized as the world’s top structural engineering project. The Institution of Structural Engineers has presented
