Practice Areas and Specialties

PML Seismic Risk Assessments

Rapid yet quality assessments of building seismic risk is a core element of the practice. Services include written reports with or without site assessments, as required by client standards.


Peer Reviews

Our peer review clients range from the UC system to private investors. Services include calculation review, structural drawing review and project coordination. Detailed written reports are included and essential.

Structural Investigations

Real estate transactions, building damage assessment and construction quality assurance – Guyader Consulting brings a knowledgeable voice to the project site. With extensive experience in commercial, university and OSHPD work – including construction administration – working quickly and confidently is a signature service.


Detailed Seismic Evalations

When your project moves beyond the PML phase or when the site calls for a more detailed ASCE 41 evaluation, an understanding of the process is required. Guyader Consulting not only has experience with this type of work, but president, Brenda Guyader, spent more than a decade with a leading provider and developer of this standard.
