Earthquake and Seismic

Orient Research engineers have extensive experience in earthquake engineering, particularly in the evaluation, analysis and design of structures for pre- and post-earthquake conditions. They have worked on a variety of large evaluation, testing, detail analysis and reinforcement design projects with construction areas ranging from 100 m2 to approximately 1 million m2 on a single contract.

The earthquake resistant design of a structure includes not only structural analysis and design, but also ground modeling and analysis that takes into account local site-specific hazards.

Orient Research is one of the founding members of the Seismic Base Isolation Association in Turkey, and our Technical Director is on the board of directors of the association.

Orient Research offers a range of earthquake engineering services including and more:
○ Seismic hazard and risk analysis,
○ Ground response analysis,
○ Determination of design ground motion,
○ Liquefaction analysis,
○ Seismic slope stability analysis,
○ Seismic analysis and design of new and existing structures,
○ Seismic analysis and design of non-structural elements,
○ Innovative technologies in seismic isolation systems for existing and new structures.
