  Warehouses storing heavy archives or files off the main floor

Slapping up a mezzanine without proper stairs and fire sprinklers underneath is a massive hazard that will get your Emeryville doors locked. Get your blueprints cleared by the Building Division at 1333 Park Ave Emeryville, CA 94608 or call (510) 596-4310. Ensure your second-level operations are fully legal near Public Market Emeryville, Emeryville Marina Park, Pixar Animation Studios (Exterior/HQ). [SEISMIC: The city will require stamped engineering proof that your catwalks will not buckle during a seismic event.]

Verifying Concrete Slab Load Capacities

We eliminate the guesswork by conducting rigorous slab tests to confirm your concrete can handle a structural mezzanine. If your floor needs help, we engineer custom heavy-duty baseplates to safely distribute the extreme loads.

Seismic Base Shear Compliance for Mezzanine Structures

The deployment of a multi-tiered mezzanine necessitates complex structural bracing to counteract localized overturning moments and elevated centers of gravity. Erecting this secondary footprint in a Emeryville warehouse requires precise calibration of cross-bracing and moment connections to comply strictly with local seismic base shear and transverse deflection protocols.

• ✓
  Calibrate cross-bracing against transverse deflection protocols.
• ✓
  Verify moment connection yield strengths under seismic loads.
• ✓
  Calculate overturning moment coefficients for elevated centers of gravity.
