Seismic Retrofitting Step-by-Step Process

Real Estate Assessment and Appraisal

Our initial investigations consist of a thorough on-site examination to reveal the weaknesses in your foundation, framing, and joints. Houses located in such places as Sanders Ranch or Camino Pablo usually possess their own soils that cannot be reinforced in the same way.

Designing and Planning in Engineering

Our retrofit plan is custom-made after assessing it. All of its plans are designed taking into consideration the home design, topography and safety of the city to bring accuracy and performance.

Retrofitting and Installation

Our team provides installation of hardware, anchor bolts, and bracing systems with good quality material and techniques. Our work is efficient and it will have the least impact on your everyday life.

The seismic problems affecting commercial properties in Alamo are unique to professional offices and shopping malls.

Our retrofit services are commercial-based services that do not cause much disturbance to the operation in order to provide long term security.

Retrofitted Your Properties with Seismic in Moraga

Moraga is located close to Hayward Fault Zone which is among the most active seismic areas in California. A lot of the houses around these areas were built earlier than the modern building regulations demanded seismic bracing or foundation anchoring. These pre-existing buildings are specifically susceptible to shaking, slipping, and tearing of frames during an earthquake.

Professional retrofit reinforces the foundation and attachment to your home, to prevent the expensive destruction or collapse. It does not matter whether you are a hillside owner with a view of Moraga Road, or it is a single-story house neighboring Saint Mary college, our team is capable of creating and implementing a retrofit plan that fits the structure of the property, soil type, and structure perfectly.

Documentation and Compliance

We also offer complete documentation and network with local building authorities to make sure that your business is in compliance and safe to both the employees, customers and the tenants.

Seismic Safety Improvement of Older Buildings

Our retrofit programs save these historic buildings without changing their aesthetic or historical quality.

  • Foundation Bolting and Bracing: Enhances the bonding of the structure to the bottom to have a better resistance in the case of tremors.
  • Cripple Wall Reinforcement: Structural panels are added to those homes that are built on elevated foundations to ensure that they do not shift or collapse.
  • Shear Wall installation: Takes up the lateral seismic force and spreads it over the frame.
  • Soft-Story Strengthening: Strengthens open levels that are commonly used in garages or in older additions.

Full Engineering and Permitting: We handle design clearances and city paperwork in order to ensure smooth operating of the project.

The experience of older Moraga homes guarantees that all the upgrades are perfectly integrated into the building structure without compromising the aesthetics of the building but making it significantly safer.

All retrofits end with an inspection and certification of the city that now passes your property to meet or surpass the seismic safety standards of Moraga.
