Overview
Seismic upgrade for structural integrity includes strengthening the unreinforced masonry building facade, along with retrofit work to the overall structural system for compliance with current building codes.
Renovation improvements and code upgrades include the following:
- Mechanical & Plumbing
Heating and ventilation system upgrades including boilers, piping, ducts, insulation, pumps, fans, controls and equipment to replace failing or out of service systems, increase energy efficiency and to facilitate seismic enhancements. - Electrical and Low Voltage Communication Cabling
Replace roof. Repair and restore portions of the exterior walls, windows and exterior doors as required by code and to facilitate seismic enhancements. - Electrical and Low Voltage Communication Cabling
In addition to replacing failing or non-operational service and distribution systems, increasing energy efficiency and facilitating the construction of seismic enhancements, the work includes matching load capacity with demand, load shedding and improvements to lighting and energy efficiency improvements. Low voltage cabling, cabinets and devices will be upgraded as required. - Interior Finishes, Doors and Hardware
Repair or replace interior finishes including ceiling finishes, flooring, interior doors, stairs, wall finishes and walls as required by code and to facilitate seismic enhancements. - Fixed in Place Furnishings and Equipment
Repair or replace cabinets, counters, window blinds and other installed furnishings as required by code and to facilitate seismic enhancements.
