SEISMIC ACADEMY :
We are pleased to share the August 2026 edition of Seismic Academy trimester publication EPICENTRE. This issue highlights the evolution of India's seismic design framework and upcoming codal developments, strengthening and retrofitting of structures using post-installed solutions, the seismic retrofit of San Francisco City Hall through base isolation, and key seismic engineering lessons from the Burj Khalifa. The edition also features research contributions focused on advancing seismic safety, structural resilience, and innovative engineering practices. Through these diverse perspectives, EPICENTRE continues to foster knowledge exchange and support the development of safer, more resilient built environments. Seismic Academy’s trimester publication brings together technical insights, global case studies, and emerging developments in earthquake engineering and resilient construction.
