Distribution System Seismic Bracing & Equipment Anchorage
Upgrading the seismic bracing of existing systems and equipment is a consequential chore in the upgrade of any critical existing facility. The work is complex and detail-oriented as omission or failure of any single brace or anchor could result in disruption to post-earthquake facility operations. This is especially true when the building must remain operational while the seismic upgrade is performed. Our approach is to reasonably minimize the bracing that must be performed, while ensuring that every critical system is protected.
Equipment Pre-approvals
Work with equipment manufacturers and installers to develop seismic anchorage details. Frequently, details are submitted to the AHJ (Authority Having Jurisdiction) for preapproval. This work results in additional installation projects in other Practice Areas, implementing the preapproval and/or custom details, and providing construction support.
Stair design
Design of feature and egress stairs directly for miscellaneous metals and steel trade partners.
Vertical Transportation Delegated Design
Work with elevator contractors to design the components and anchorage of the elevator system. Projects range from simple commercial installations to projects under DSA/OSHPD, to modernizations in existing buildings.
