Ilya Engineering offers a quality yet super affordable Seismic Retrofit to make your existing structure more resistant to seismic activities!
Seismic Retrofitting is the upgrade or change of existing structures to minimize the effects of seismic activity and ground motion.
Also known as Earthquake Retrofitting, it is done to a house, building, or any other structure to prevent displacement from its concrete foundation. As a result of this, a building becomes safer and less prone to suffer damage when an earthquake hits. Seismic Retrofitting is considered one of the most affordable seismic improvements you can make to prevent your home from getting damaged for the same reason.
It is super important to know that Seismic Retrofitting Techniques are required for those concrete constructions or structures which are vulnerable or prone to damage or fall by seismic forces. This is because, in the last three decades, moderate to severe earthquakes have occurred around the globe every year and especially in California, causing damage to valuable property. And, not to mention, such events, apart from property damage, also cause casualties!
With Seismic Retrofitting, you can expect enhanced safety for your property. Not to mention, correctly retrofitted buildings stood more robust against the earthquake shaking and damage. Thus, reducing the risk of injury in such events. Also, it helps you protect financially and your investment. A property buildup needs a lot of time, money, and effort. If it is not Seismic Retrofit, the repair costs you would face after an earthquake could be costly. Hence it is always cheaper to retrofit your building than repair it after a hit by an earthquake.
Lastly, a Seismic Retrofit (house) ensures better safety and security in your home. Thus offering you better living space and less damage and cost associated with such repairs. And most important- peace of mind!
