Disaster Zone Podcast: ‘Solving Seismic Structural Issues’

What is “life safety” when it comes to building codes?

There are earthquake risks around the world and in most areas of the United States. In this podcast we learn a little bit about the risks, but spend most of the time on how we can address those risks by building as safely and economically as possible.

You will also learn what “life safety” means when it comes to earthquakes and building codes.

My guest is Kenny O'Neill and he is a structural engineer specializing in seismic construction. Check out this Disaster Zone podcast: “Solving Seismic Structural Issues.”
