A design guideline which provides guidance to project definition and design teams on how to use Pipe Damage Assessment Tool (PDAT) outputs in their scoping and concept design work.

How separate design teams from previously competing organisations came together and operated in a collaborative way. The consultancy organisations involved in SCIRT's design team were recognised for their collaboration with an ACENZ Innovate NZ Award of Excellence in 2016.

Design services were not part of the formal SCIRT Alliance, but were engaged separately from various consultancy organisations as well as the Christchurch City Council.

A submission produced by the consultancies for the ACENZ Innovate NZ Awards of Excellence 2016, providing details about how the design team supporting SCIRT was formed, and how successful design delivery was achieved.

A document which describes the SCIRT model and how it drove both collaboration and competition.

The challenges of rebuilding underground infrastructure in liquefaction-prone Christchurch were put under the microscope in a controlled field assessment of the performance of below ground infrastructure in simulated liquefied soils.

A report detailing the Liquefaction Trial, the observations, and discussions of the trial interpretation and findings.

A video filmed during the Liquefaction Trial detonation and immediately following (run time approximately one minute).

To manage the infrastructure rebuild following the Christchurch earthquakes, one of New Zealand's largest natural disasters, a new model was created, which utilised both competition and collaboration to drive performance.

The size and scale of the project - $2.2 billion and more than 700 projects over five years - necessitated the new approach.

SCIRT was based on an Alliance Agreement between national and local government and five civil engineering contractors, but was not a conventional alliance.
