Seismic Compliance Certification per GSA
Seismic Compliance Certification per GSA
(OP)
Is anyone here done this before for an existing building?I'm looking for a complete list of standards that can be used to do this. I know about FEMA 310 + the current building code used in the jurisdiction. Any other standards I need to be aware of? How extensive should the review / analysis needs to be?
I went to the GSA website looking for a standard form / guidelines and came up empty. Thanks!

Also wondering if there's any research done that is readily available online with regards to the ROI for buildings that went through the certification.
I'm sure a building is more valuable after a certification but I don't have hard numbers to use. I'm trying to justify my fee as owners typically just see the expense.

If you are dealing with a GSA building, there is a strong possibility that progressive collapse and blast protection requirements are needed. Good luck.
