Earthquake-Ready Foundation Strengthening in Los Angeles

Tuesday, September 25th, 2018 by Dave Weekley

Challenge

The property owners wanted their home updated to meet California’s present earthquake-resistance standards as outlined in the state’s Building Code.

Solution

To achieve compliance, Saber’s team installed Universal Foundation Plates, A35 Framing Angles, and Post Caps, then adhered foundation-strengthening mesh to the structure. This approach reinforced the foundation walls and improved the overall connection between the home and its foundation, ensuring better performance during seismic events.

This tilted Support Post illustrates how much a Home can slide on it's Foundation, over a period of years, of Earthquakes.
