Seismic Life-Safety: The Regents have supported an aggressive program of seismic corrections since the 1980s, when the intent was to complete the corrections program by the year 2000. At this time, 90 percent of UC buildings (with 80 percent of the space) rated seismically “Poor” or “Very Poor” prior to 1997 have undergone or are receiving correction. However, the Northridge Earthquake of 1994 and subsequent Kobe Earthquake provided new knowledge of seismic forces, which resulted in major changes in structural codes and design practices in 1997. As a result, the number of UC buildings identified as seismically hazardous has increased dramatically, adding over nine million ogsf of deficient space. With great effort, about 327 facilities containing 76 percent of all seismically hazardous space now have been corrected or are being corrected, including all general campus buildings identified as “Very Poor.” At eight of the University’s campuses, most seismically deficient buildings have been addressed. However, the magnitude of the remaining problem at two campuses—Berkeley and Los Angeles—presents a continuing challenge.
