San Francisco General Hospital Main Building M Wing Seismic Evaluation Project highlights trimble’s ref tek strong motion seismic instrumentation is used on california’s program of hospital retrofits and rebuilds due to open in 2015, the san francisco general hospital new building has the most seismically resistant design available in the world today. The general selected cs products to meet strict seismic standards, create durable yet aesthetic interiors, promote healthy indoor air quality, reduce energy usage and seek leed gold certification.
Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital Enclos Treating more than 100,000 people annually, the new san francisco general hospital and trauma center (sfgh) rebuild is due for completion in 2015. the new building will replace the existing main hospital building with a facility that meets state seismic safety requirements for acute care facilities. The proposed project is located at the west lawn of the existing hospital campus. the site is within the p public zoning district and has an institutional master plan filed with the san francisco planning department. the campus is within the 105 e bulk and height district. As a joint venture partner of the prime consultant team of degenkolb structus, structus was responsible for performing structural and seismic evaluation analyses and retrofit study of the main building as part of the sb1953 project for sfgh. A structural analysis of one of the hospital’s buildings indicated that it was vulnerable to severe damage during a significant seismic event. the retrofit design called for installation of new footings and large diameter piers around the perimeter of the foundation.

The new hospital building is designed to be the most seismically resistant in the world, featuring advanced technology to ensure it remains operational even after a significant earthquake. Complex and challenging renovation construction project in operational hospital. change orders often exceed the standard 10% construction cost and duration contingency. allows for the execution of change orders, including time extensions, to complete the project. Eric ko explains the significance of new base isolator technology, used in the new san francisco general hospital, for the future of structural design in high risk seismic. Other work includes the ongoing and much needed seismic retrofit of the 1976 concrete hospital facility, known as building 5, formerly the main hospital. for the retrofit, the building’s structural components are currently being reinforced to improve its seismic performance in a major earthquake.
