The Bay Area will never forget how many lives were lost and how much damage was done during the magnitude 6.9 Loma Prieta earthquake in October 1989. Since then, the technology industry has taken on the challenge of making our workplaces, hospitals and houses more earthquake safe.
After the historic quake, Bay Area engineers went to work designing new technology to eventually anchor the buildings of today. Buildings like the new Stanford Hospital, made to stand out above ground and to withstand an earthquake of 8.0 underground.
Under the building, engineer Bert Hurlbut showed NBC Bay Area how the structure is raised up above 206 base isolators, pedestals secured under the hospital’s foundation. They weigh up to 4 tons each, he said, allowing the structure to shift by as much as 6 feet during an earthquake.
