Christchurch Civic Building has been defined the most eco-compatible building in New Zealand and it represents an important architectural renovation work designed by Athfield Architects.
The building uses technologies dedicated to the optimization of resources such as the mini power plant that creates energy from landfill – collected material or the recovery of energy generated by the lifting brakes.
Nesite mainly had to satisfy the seismic characteristics of the project by supplying a raised floor composed of bare panels suitable for loose – lay coverings, equipped with bracing systems and special substructures with heights up to 175 cm.
Christchurch Civic Building has received many awards and it was certified LEED Platinum.
