Do you live in the Bay Area? Are you looking to retrofit your home against Earthquakes? Are you interested in reinforcing a house or building so that it is less likely to be damaged or separated from its foundation during an earthquake? With earthquake retrofitting in place, you're less likely to face significant damage when a natural disaster occurs.

The silver retrofit brackets you see here seem simple, but when they are attached at the proper spacing to your interior foundation and floor system, they can save you a lot of future problems. 

This customer, located in Los Gatos, came to us with concerns regarding some unevenness he had seen in his floors. Through 

Our Structural Consultant, Steve Heaton, came to evaluate their situation. The home was constructed in such a way that was fine for supporting the floors at the birth of the building, but not for an extended period of time. In order to help the homeowner out, we installed our SmartJack Adjustable Steel Post System to add an extra layer of support. With this system, we were able to lift, level, and stabilize the floors. 

Earthquake retrofitting, or seismic retrofitting, is the reinforcing of a house or building so that it is less likely to be damaged or separated from its foundation during an earthquake.
