Seismic Design Clause Samples
The Seismic Design clause establishes requirements for the structural design of a building or infrastructure to ensure it can withstand seismic events such as earthquakes. It typically specifies the applicable building codes, standards, and performance criteria that must be followed by engineers and contractors during the design and construction phases. By mandating these standards, the clause helps minimize the risk of structural failure during an earthquake, thereby protecting occupants and reducing potential property damage.
