When it comes to protecting your home or business from earthquakes, there is no such thing as being too prepared. That’s why our team at Retrofit1 was thrilled to help a recent client in Encino, CA retrofit their building with a moment frame. This type of frame is designed to resist the lateral forces of an earthquake, making it an ideal solution for buildings in seismically active areas.
The client came to us with a unique challenge: their building had tuck-under parking, which made it vulnerable to seismic activity. After assessing the situation, we determined that the best course of action was to retrofit the building with a moment frame. This involved installing steel columns and beams to create a frame that could resist the lateral forces of an earthquake.
The project was not without its challenges, but our team was up for the task. We managed to successfully install the moment frame and reinforce the building against seismic activity. The client was thrilled with the results and expressed their satisfaction with our work.
If you’re located in a seismically active area, don’t wait until it’s too late to protect your property. Retrofitting your building with a moment frame is a smart investment that could save
