Our Commitment
Capital Seismic & Engineering Ltd. has been built with the core belief of going above and beyond on service. Through our commitment to site visits, ease of communication, simple to follow drawings and a common sense approach to engineering, we aim to make the process simple, consistent and cost effective.
What matters to us
Design for the real world
We combine our love of engineering with the skills learned working on the contracting/supplier side to find the best solutions to your design needs
Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee
We understand that deadlines are ever-changing and last-minute requests are a part of construction. Nimble and versatile (describes Craig perfectly – maybe not!) we aim to accommodate by juggling priorities and using our team and time wisely.
Communication
Communication is a cornerstone of life (stated often by scared looking married people). We only use cell phones and we aim to deal with many questions face to face on site to make the process smooth.
Part of the Team
Construction is like a team sport – the best projects occur through open communication, respect, trust and experience. A sense of humor doesn’t hurt and we’ll get there eventually!

NO PROJECT TOO BIG OR TOO SMALL
Stress-free Seismic Restraint
Since 2006 Seismic compliance with section 4.1.8.18 “Elements of Structures, Non-Structural Components and Equipment” has been a standard part of commercial construction projects.
While the process should be fairly straightforward and streamlines by now, there is still potential for it to cause additional stress and potentially hold up occupancy.
Capital Seismic specializes in the design of seismic restraint for all kinds of commercial, residential, institutional and industrial projects. We cover any size projects, retrofit or new-construction from the installation of a single fan or light to full buildings and large industrial projects with equipment in excess of 100,000lbs.
No Project Too Big Or Too Small
Capital Seismic is a seismic engineering firm specializing in the design of seismic systems for all kinds of commercial, residential, institutional, industrial and heavy industrial projects. While the process should be fairly straightforward and streamlined by now there is still potential for additional stress and hold-up of occupancy. We will help you choose the best products, inspect the project to make sure the installation conforms with the design.
