Building Seismic Design
Designing Structures to Perform Under Pressure
Our structural engineers design and evaluate building systems to resist seismic and lateral forces while meeting applicable code requirements, performance goals, and constructability needs.
For new construction, additions, renovations, adaptive reuse, and specialty building projects, KCI, formerly McLaren Engineering Group, develops seismic design solutions that address load paths, drift, torsion, foundations, anchorage, connections, and lateral-force-resisting systems. From shear walls, braced frames, and moment frames to complex existing conditions, our team helps deliver code-compliant seismic solutions built for safety, durability, and long-term performance.
