Data Centers And Data Centers for AI: What Is The Difference In Seismic Bracing Design?
As artificial intelligence continues to revolutionize industries, the infrastructure supporting it must evolve too. The electricity demand from AI data centers makes up 24% of the entire server electricity demand. As such, the seismic bracing design needs for data centers for AI vary somewhat from traditional data centers, as they are more complicated, there are more of them, and such projects are typically fast-tracked.

Emergency Response Planning: The Importance Of Multihazard Mitigation Planning
Every year, disasters take the lives of hundreds of people, injure thousands more, and significantly impact communities. Many natural disasters are predictable and much of the damage resulting from these events can be alleviated or potentially avoided with proper multihazard mitigation planning.

How To Fund Seismic Retrofit Now That FEMA Grants Are Currently On Hold
Since the federal government has recently placed all seismic retrofit grants on hold, many public entities are wondering how to proceed in funding their seismic retrofit projects. VIE can assist an organization to fund seismic retrofit projects, as we have for many organizations that have pursued seismic retrofit projects independent of FEMA for decades.

Keep Your Business Running After An Earthquake With Seismic Bracing
Earthquakes not only pose a significant threat to life safety, but also to economics. They can severely damage equipment, buildings, and infrastructure, as well as disrupt production. When you’re operating a business in an area with seismic hazards, advance planning will improve the likelihood that your business will still be able to operate with functional systems in place.
