Walls
Clinical Services Block Building
Shear walls required a seismic upgrade and local strengthening to holes cut for new penetrations.
BYU Manwaring Student Center
Additional in-plane shear strength for CMU walls was provided as part of a seismic upgrade to the student center.
Centinela Hospital
Both columns and Walls were strengthened in this California Hospital to meet the required seismic codes.
Egyptian Theater
These Hollow Clay Tile (HCT) walls were overlayed with Fibrwrap for life safety and to add shear capacity. Fibrwrap can be used to prevent unreinforced masonry from becoming a falling hazard.
Fort Sam Houston
Brick Walls strengthened for shear in this historic building maintaining the original character of the building.
Huntley Hotel
After the Northridge earthquake this Los Angeles Hotel was severely damaged. All the exterior walls and pier walls were strengthened without adding any significant weight or aesthetic change to the structure.
Wells Blue Bunny Factory
The potential for a blast at this ice cream factory was the impetus for this retrofit. The Fibrwrap System provided the needed blast resistance for the block walls in the control room.
