Before strengthening can begin, a soft story retrofit starts with careful preparation—and that means precision concrete sawing and demolition.
At Sinai Construction, we make sure every step is handled with expertise and care. Using heavy-duty concrete saws, we cleanly remove the original foundation sections to make way for new, reinforced structural elements. Prior to any cutting, our team ensures that all inspections, permits, and engineered plans are completed, so we avoid contact with any underground electrical or water lines.
This isn’t just demolition—it’s strategic groundwork. Removing concrete safely and precisely is a critical phase that sets up the next steps: installing moment frames, reinforcing foundation pads, and upgrading the building’s lateral strength.
Our experienced crews are trained to work efficiently without compromising safety or structural integrity. From planning to execution, Sinai Construction is here to guide you through the retrofit process—step by step.
If your soft story building needs seismic upgrades, start with the right team. Start with Sinai.
