“The team at Kirk Roberts used thinking that was outside the box, they liked the idea.  Then after putting the basic design into their simulated seismic program, refining, and testing, we landed on the perfect mix of design and engineering. The biggest test came with the 2011 earthquakes in Christchurch. We had already installed tanks in the Rangiora district and later the real test with the 5 – 1.3m litre effluent tanks in Kaikōura (which were full at the time of the Kaikoura earthquake), two of these being on the fault line. The tanks came through with very little damage. We had no idea if they would withhold this type of enormous force, I’d witnessed, concrete, timber, and steel tanks that had collapsed. We’re certainly grateful to have teamed with Kirk Roberts. The commitment  Damian and Jade have for their clients, and for finding the best engineering solutions is second to none.”
