Seismic Seminars in Conformance with NZS 4219; NZS 1170.5 - Onsite or Online

In the wake of the Christchurch and Canterbury earthquakes, ISAT-Vaico deployed our top engineers and seismic consultants to the area to host a series of free seismic seminars to local construction professionals upon request. The services and solutions in these seminars are specific to building utility systems including, but not limited to: hvac, mechanical piping, distributed electrical systems, plumbing, process piping, and fire protection. The content of our seminars has been continuously developed from lessons learned on over fifteen thousand projects completed globally, but have been tailored to meet the needs of local construction professionals by taking into account the building requirements under NZS 4219 and NZS 1170.5. Our teams work to continuously revise the content of these seminars per the direct feedback of customers and local construction professionals, and our onsite seminars can be customized to meet the needs of any company.
