All:
An archived public repository of seismic response measurements for the Christchurch Women's Hosptial (from September 2011 to June 2012) are archived in the NEES Project Warehouse. You may need to obtain an account at nees.org to access the archived data. These accounts are free, and are usually activated within minutes of the request.
The data is subdivided into three "trials"
Trial-1 2011-09-18 to 2012-02-10 (Recorder #3 in PSE building)
Trial-2 2012-02-10 to 2012-06-26 (Recorder #3 in Oral Health building)
Trial-3 2010-09-03 to 2011-09-18 GeoNet CHHC and CBGS records only
A presentation outlines the Performance of the Base-Isolated Christchurch Women's Hospital through the 2010-2011 Canterbury Earthquake Sequence.
Figures showing the locations and orientations of all sensors within the CHHC and Parkside structures are within the Sensor Layout Drawings folder.
An archive of photos from this project are within the Photos folder.
Files providing further details on the instrumentation include Instrument_Metadata.txt and Strong_Motion_Metadata.xlsx.
A spreadsheet giving the response statistics for all records (there are hundreds of them) is Data_Index.csv and the column index for this spreadsheet is Column_Index.txt. These two files are the same for Trial-1 , Trial-2 , and Trial-3.
The easiest way to download the complete repository is to use the NEES PEN tool
