SHEAR SEISMIC

We offer design and consulting services to homeowners with the carpentry skills and will to the installation themselves. Retrofitting guides one may find are often not so easy to apply to a real home and generally apply only to simple home designs... Earthquakes have done billions of dollars of needless damage to wood-frame houses, leaving families homeless and desperate. Why so much damage? Because most homes built prior to this century lack the strength to resist extreme lateral force. Why needless? Because they could easily have been strengthened for a wee fraction of the restoration cost. Through this website, we endeavour to familiarize you with structural and non-structural protection methods and let you know how we can help.
