 Seismic Retrofit / Repair

Bailey Construction brings broad experience and particular skill to the seismic upgrading of existing structures. We have responded to the repair needs generated by seismic events throughout our history, but in recent years the economic importance of seismic performance has come to prominence. Prudent owners, and their lenders, now look beyond the "life safety" level of most current codes. They plan ahead to limit downtime and dollar loss. Some have specific needs for uninterrupted service. Others want to preserve the treasured designs and materials of historic structures.
