Protecting Canada's infrastructure is fundamentally important to public safety and to all sectors of the economy. Even without loss of life, a major catastrophic event, such as an earthquake, may produce significant damage, economic loss and place major strains on Canada's and Canadians' well being. The development and implementation of new self-centering resilient systems offer a new approach to designing structures by eliminating structural damage and protecting critical components, thus allowing for rapid recovery even after major earthquakes.

保护加拿大的基础设施对公共安全和所有经济部门至关重要。即使没有生命损失，地震等重大灾难性事件也可能会造成重大损害，经济损失并在加拿大和加拿大人的健康状态下造成重大压力。新的自我为中心的弹性系统的开发和实施通过消除结构损害和保护关键组件，为设计结构提供了新的方法，从而可以快速恢复，即使在重大地震后也可以恢复。
