Seismic Upgrade of Four-Story Wood-Framed Condominium Buildings
This paper discusses the background and methodology associated with the seismic upgrading of a large multi-unit residential project. The advantages of using a rigid diaphragm analysis for the design and retrofit of this type of structure are demonstrated. The development of a computer spread sheet analysis tool greatly aided in the design of the retrofit project. Detailed construction management allowed for an efficient system, which provided for continuous occupancy of the individual units during the construction project, resulting in significant cost savings.
