Shaking things up at UCSD! Raymond’s San Diego team, alongside Clark Construction and other trades, recently supported the University of California San Diego’s groundbreaking research on mid-rise cold-formed steel structures — studying their seismic and fire performance to help improve building codes.
Raymond stick-built the facility’s first floor, then installed wall and floor panels (produced by a Standard/Nevell joint venture) along with finish work for floors two through 10.
The UC San Diego Shake Table is the only outdoor facility of its kind in the world — and the only simulator capable of testing a 10-story building.
