SP3 enables resilient seismic design and advanced building-specific resiliency and risk assessment. Our primary goal is to leverage the latest in research, as well as advanced structural systems, to help you to design more resilient buildings in your structural engineering practice.
SP3 | WHERE RESEARCH MEETS PRACTICE
VISION…
We envision a world in which building specific seismic resilience and risk is well understood. We believe that this will motivate and facilitate the design of resilient buildings, increase community resilience, and enable better decision making.
MISSION…
To enable and facilitate rapid and advanced building-specific seismic resilience and risk assessments for all buildings.
