Seismic Restraint Engineering Assessment

Seamlessly Integrating Seismic Restraints for Safer Buildings

At EVC Engineering, we simplify the complex process of seismic restraint by working alongside your wider project team to design, model, and coordinate restraints for non-structural elements. This ensures that your project remains safe, cost-effective, and simple to construct. Non-structural elements, which can represent up to 70% of a building’s capital value, are critical to the safety and functionality of a building during an earthquake.

By addressing these elements, we reduce the risks of damage and enhance the overall resilience of the building.
Our seismic restraint services protect non-structural elements such as mechanical systems, partitions, and ceilings, reducing the risk of significant damage during seismic events. Our approach delivers solutions that ensure not only safety but also compliance with building codes, providing peace of mind to all project stakeholders.

Our services include:

• Collaborative Design: We work closely with architects, engineers, and contractors to ensure that seismic restraints are integrated seamlessly into the overall design, removing barriers to coordination between different disciplines.
• Improved Value: Our solutions are efficient, easy to source, and simple to install, reducing costs while improving the resilience of non-structural elements.
• Risk Mitigation: We directly address seismic risks and help reduce cost and programme risks by ensuring all designs are coordinated early in the project.
• Compliance: Our design and drawings ensure compliance with all relevant seismic regulations and the Building Code, giving the contractor confidence in their installation.

With EVC Engineering, you can rest assured that your project’s non-structural elements will be well protected and compliant, ensuring the long-term safety and functionality of the building.
