Senate Bill 1953 Seismic Safety Compliance Management
Senate Bill 1953 was developed to address issues of survivability of both structural & non-structural components of hospital buildings after a seismic event. The legislation has been amended and deadlines changed numerous times via subsequent Senate Bills, and the interpretation of current legislation can be puzzling. Possible consequences for missing deadlines are at best a denial of building permits, but risk of closure or imposition of fines are other possible recourses.
The Stahl Companies are the experts in translating the legislation and applying it to how each facility can best navigate and spread out the costs of Senate Bill 1953. We can represent your interests working with a team you have in place or developing a team of project managers, designers/surveyors, contractors and inspectors.
Define. Design. Comply.
Our comprehensive approach includes:
DEFINE the steps to SB1953 compliance. By evaluating past and ongoing projects, Stahl will track projects applicable to NPC criteria, create steps for benefiting from that work, then identify remaining areas to be surveyed in order to meet NPC compliance. The team will provide a timeline and associated costs for needed surveys.
DESIGN OSHPD-ready drawings for recommended work packages, and provide budgets for needed construction.
COMPLY with Senate Bill 1953 legislation through the execution of the needed construction and the documentation required for compliance for past and newly identified work.
Stahl Companies can lead you down the path to compliance. You may be closer than you think.
