SEISMIC ANALYSIS

 

Seismic analysis is the process of evaluating the behavior of structures under earthquake loading. It involves the application of engineering principles to determine the response of a structure to ground motion, and to assess the safety and performance of the structure during an earthquake. Seismic analysis is necessary because earthquakes can cause significant damage to buildings, bridges, and other structures, and can pose a serious threat to public safety.

Seismic analysis is typically performed by licensed and experienced structural engineers, who use computer modeling and simulation tools to predict the behavior of a structure during an earthquake. The engineer considers the location, type, and intensity of potential earthquakes, as well as the properties of the soil and the structure, to develop a comprehensive analysis of the structure’s response.

Seismic analysis is needed to ensure the safety and stability of structures in areas prone to earthquakes. It is required by building codes and regulations in earthquake-prone regions, and is an important aspect of the design and construction of new structures, as well as the retrofitting of existing structures to improve their seismic performance. The results of a seismic analysis can inform decisions about design and construction methods, materials, and other factors that can affect the safety and resilience of a structure during an earthquake.

Founded in 1982, The Eden Group is a civil and structural engineering company based out of Los Angeles and Big Bear Lake. We have a team of professional licensed engineers to help move your project from A to Z. Our services include pre-development phase, research and design, civil engineering, structural engineering, and construction management among others.

 

With over 2,200 projects completed, we have accumulated the knowledge and expertise to work on any project, big or small, residential, or commercial, and all in-between. Over the years we have built great relations with city officials and city departments which gives us an advantage in processing plans and moving projects forward in an efficient, cost effective, and timely manner.
