When it comes to protecting your home or business from the dangers of earthquakes, there is no such thing as being too prepared. That’s why the team at Retrofit1 is proud to have completed a seismic retrofit for a wood frame, 4-6 unit building in Panorama City, CA. The building, which is located at 8425 Willis Avenue, was vulnerable to damage due to its tuck-under parking and 2 or more stories. To solve this problem, we used a braced or moment-resisting steel frame, as well as cantilevered steel columns. This method of retrofitting is designed to resist the lateral forces of an earthquake, thus protecting the building and its occupants.
The Retrofit1 team faced several challenges while working on this project, but our experience and expertise allowed us to overcome them and complete the retrofit successfully. We are proud to have helped our client protect their investment and increase the safety of their tenants. The client was very satisfied with our work and has since recommended us to others in the Panorama City community.
If you are concerned about the seismic safety of your home or business, we encourage you to contact Retrofit1 today. Our team of experts will work with you to find the best retrofit solution for your needs and budget. Don’t wait until it’s too late – retrofit your property today!
