The old Railway Station clock tower on Moorhouse Avenue with plywood and steel reinforcement covering two sides, a crane hanging over top. The brickwork suffered extensive cracking during the earthquake making it in need for reinforcement. The clock has stopped at around 16:35, the time of the earthquake.

Cracks in the Veneer
Images, UC QuakeStudies
Large cracks run through the brick cladding of this house in Wainoni. The photographer comments, "During the numerous earthquakes in Christchurch the land which ran alongside the Avon river on Avonside Drive slumped towards the waterway. Houses which were wooden framed and had an external brick veneer started to sink into the liquefied soil. This caused the brick walls to crack, but the houses' occupants though shook up were saved by the wooden framework from the houses collapsing on them".
In-Plane Shear Improvement of Unreinforced Masonry Wall Panels Using NSM C…
Research papers, The University of Auckland Library
The large number of earthquake-prone vintage unreinforced masonry (URM) buildings in many seismically active parts of the world results in a need for minimally invasive and cost-effective strengthening techniques to enhance the poor earthquake performance of such buildings. The objective of the research reported here was to investigate the applicability of using near-surface-mounted (NSM) carbon fiber–reinforced polymer (CFRP) strips as a retrofitting technique for improving the in-plane shear strength and displacement capacity of multi-leaf URM walls constructed using solid clay brick masonry. The use of this technique for repairing earthquake damaged URM walls was also investigated. Ten multileaf wall panels measuring approximately 1,200×1,200 mm 1,200×1,200 mm were constructed using recycled vintage solid clay bricks and retrofitted using NSM CFRP strips with varying reinforcement ratios. These panels were loaded in diagonal compression, and the results were compared with those obtained from testing of nominally identical unretrofitted wall panels constructed using the same materials. In addition, four wall panels extracted from existing buildings were tested in an as-built condition and then later retested after being repaired using the NSM CFRP strip technique. Based on the experimental results it was established that the NSM CFRP strip technique provides a simple and cost effective method for substantially enhancing the shear strength and displacement capacity of understrength or damaged URM wall panels http://ascelibrary.org/journal/jccof2
