Special Detailing for High Seismic and High Wind Zones

When designing structures in regions prone to high seismic activity or strong winds, meticulous attention to detail is paramount. Our structural engineers are well-versed in the specific challenges posed by these environments and are dedicated to ensuring the structural integrity and resilience of your building.

What we do

Seismic Zones

In seismic zones, our focus is on providing designs and detailing that enable the structure to safely dissipate seismic energy. We adhere to the latest building codes and incorporate proven techniques to enhance ductility and flexibility. This ensures your building not only withstands earthquakes but also performs predictably, minimizing damage and safeguarding occupants.

High Wind Zones

In areas susceptible to high winds, our priority is to prevent structural failure due to tearing, uplift, or overturning. We provide comprehensive detailing that reinforces critical connections and components, ensuring your building remains steadfast in the face of powerful gusts. Additionally, we carefully consider drift limitations to protect sensitive elements like glazing and brittle finishes.

Our Services

New Construction

We integrate seismic and wind-resistant design principles from the outset, ensuring your building is inherently resilient.

Existing Buildings

We assess existing structures and provide recommendations for retrofitting and strengthening to meet current code requirements and enhance safety.

Whether you're embarking on a new construction project or seeking to fortify an existing building, Cornerstone Structural is equipped to provide the specialized detailing necessary to protect your investment and ensure the safety of its occupants.
