Is the ROOM Focus Room compliant for Seismic Activity?
ROOM has partnered with Jensen Hughes Engineering, a global leader in safety engineering to determine seismic compliance for our modular products. The purpose of seismic anchoring is to fix our Phone Booth, Meeting Rooms and Focus Room to the structure it’s located in to prevent the unit from moving during seismic activity. If you work in a place that falls under a specific seismic design category, you’ll need to anchor your unit. We offer a free step-by-step illustrated guide and anchoring kit to all clients who request them
Our seismic anchoring solution is in accordance with the below:
- 2018 International building Code
- ASCE 7-16 Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and Other Structures
- ACI 318-14, Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete
- AISC 360-10, Specification for Structural Steel Buildings, 2010
