Construction Administration in Anaheim: Local Conditions That Matter
Anaheim is in a moderate to high seismic zone. Seismic design is required for most projects. Many Anaheim jurisdictions require structural observation by the engineer of record for lateral systems — the CBC treats it as a life-safety check, not paperwork. When the engineer who stamped the plans also observes the build, discrepancies get caught while they're still cheap to fix.
