So, we can line up with our framing members to miss, or align with, those other mechanical services in a much more efficient manner. And, because we’ve been doing this for about five or six years, we have a very good relationship with a local engineering firm here, as well. So, we have a body of work and a set of standard details already in place, and when we’re talking to a client - a developer or prop- erty owner - we can show them all of these BIM models in place, with the engineer sitting in the room with us and validating the details, and this helps us in the pursuit of these proj- ects. “And, finally, we’re the only company that has performed the seismic test on the shake ta- ble down at UC San Diego. (The biggest shake table in the U.S. is part of the National Science Foundation’s Natural Hazards Engineering Research Infrastructure. By reproducing earth- quake seismic waves, the shake table enables researchers to test new designs for large structures made of concrete, wood, masonry, and other materials.) They shook a six-story, pre-fabricated structure that we built to a 7.0 earthquake, which equaled the North Ridge quake that we had here in 1994, and the build- ing didn’t come down. So, they shook it again and it still didn’t come down. Then they set the second floor on fire, and after the fire was put out, they shook it again at 7.0 and it still didn’t come down. So, they finally turned the table to its maximum shake, which is a 10.0 earth- quake, which has never occurred in recorded
