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都至关重要。即使没有生命损失，地震等重大灾难性事件也可能造成重大破坏和经济损失，并给加拿大和加拿大人民的福祉带来重大压力。新的自定心弹性系统的开发和实施提供了一种新的结构设计方法，通过消除结构损坏和保护关键部件，从而即使在大地震后也能快速恢复。
