Engineering

This is an earthquake zone with numerous faults, mountains are rising with tectonic activity and rivers are carving the valleys deeper.  Places available for buildings, roads and bridges need special attention and strengthening.  Mountain roads need many culverts, safety rails, land stabilization structures.

Studies take us to examine the ways structures are designed to carry out their objectives. Depending on guests interests KANES show us how to view structures visualising the forces that have to be planned for when various structures are built.  We discuss the relative advantages of various building materials.
