Seismic
Losses from buildings with inadequate earthquake resistance range from costs associated with disrupted business operations to loss of life. Thanks to advances in engineering processes and building codes, most new and retrofitted buildings are able to withstand seismic activity without significant threat of collapse or injuries. However, modern seismic engineering goes beyond collapse prevention and life safety to provide solutions based on seismic risk, geography, and the client's desired level of building performance. SGH brings the leading figures in the seismic engineering industry together to create one of the most experienced and progressive teams in the field. We use this knowledge to communicate risks, levels of performance, and best-fit solutions for our wide range of clients, which include architects, engineers, building owners, and government agencies.
