Seismic Zones - Salt Lake City is near the Wasatch Fault. As such, building codes require seismic designs.
Mountain Climate - Cold winters with snow and freezing conditions need to be considered in construction and maintenance.
Air Quality - Winter temperature inversions trap pollutants in the valley. Projects may require low-emission HVAC systems, airtight envelopes, and mechanical ventilation systems.
Soil and Landscape - Varying soil types and rocky hillsides require additional consideration for construction and repairs.
Water Supply Constraints - Population growth and climate trends are placing a greater emphasis on efficient plumbing and stormwater retention.
Historic Development - Historic districts have additional design reviews to meet specific city and community requirements.
The engineers at Building Reserves understand the unique challenges of property maintenance in Salt Lake City, from seismic concerns and mountainous terrain concerns to water supply limitations and air quality control. With deep local Salt Lake City expertise, our team helps property owners plan for long-term costs and avoid unexpected repairs through strategic, data-driven maintenance solutions.
