Our engineers are knowledgeable of
the entire design and construction process.
Seismic Screening and Upgrade
US Veterans
Administration, Facility Condition Assessment (FCA)
Throughout Continental United States, Puerto
Rico
Seismic screening to quantify the vulnerability
of non-structural building components and
contents during a seismic event. Screenings were
conducted in accordance with VA Seismic Design
Requirements H-18- 8 and with Tier 1 Seismic
Evaluation of Existing Buildings per ASCE/SEI
31-03 by the American Society of Civil
Engineers. Deficiencies were quantified and
construction estimates were generated.
Naval Weapons Station,
Seismic Screening and Upgrade to Ordinance
Buildings
Charleston, South Carolina
Seismic evaluation and upgrades to meet
Life-Safety level of performance complying with
NAVFACINST 11000.40. Studies included Tier 1 and
2 evaluations per ASCE 31, followed by seismic
rehabilitation per ASCE 41. Provided plans,
specifications, narrative, survey, calculations,
and estimate for the $850,000 project. Buildings
included an 11,500sf Ammunition Segregation
Building, and a 5,505sf Ammunition Storage
Facility.
Marine Corps Air
Station, Seismic Upgrade and Repair, Combat
Training Pool
Beaufort, South Carolina
Structural survey, engineering drawings,
specifications, calculations, and estimate for
seismic upgrade and roof retrofit. Project
design for Seismic Zone 3 was used in accordance
with NAVFAC P-355, “Seismic Design for
Buildings” and Seismic Rehabilitation per ASCE/SEI
41-06. Exterior of project required new standing
seam metal roof and CMU wall reinforcement.
