Not even in Los Angeles but it is for everyone where ever they live earthquake retrofit of their building is necessary to save human life. Because every time we hear on the news that due to earthquake many people lost their lives and lots of damage happened so retrofitting can save a lot. And it’s become law after 1994 Northgate earthquake that every building built before or after 1996 needs to retrofitted otherwise one can build it.
It is for our own safety and due to safety standards in 2015, another two ordinances have been added in this law that covers the high-risk buildings such as soft story building etc.
Spending the extra money to get the safety of life
Everyone is aware of the fact that the damages caused by an earthquake are massive lives lost in such an earthquake. And if someone is living in Los Angeles then must aware of the disaster of Northgate earthquake. It was one of a widespread disaster that caused the loss of million dollars and lives. So, spending some extra money in order to get the safety is a wise decision. And everyone is aware of the fact that each and every building have to be retrofitted because of the law otherwise the owner of such building will get a notice from officials.
Spending in retrofit can save later
Spending some money in retrofitting can save someone later because if a catastrophic event like an earthquake happens the insurance company will pay for the repairs but not for everything. So it’s better to get it done as early as possible before anything bad happens.
So, for that hire a professional like retrofitting 360 which are reliable and have gained a good name in Los Angeles by hard working. They are professional can take care of everything.
