SLAC is proposing to upgrade existing Building 040 (Central Lab) to meet current seismic requirements. The single-story Building 040A was originally added to Building 040 without consideration of the irregularity created by the building addition and a seismic separation is now required to turn them into two separate buildings. This proposed action would include installing two steel plates at the Building 040A roof, cutting a 4-inch separation near Building 040, adding shear walls down below and reconfiguring office space in the one-story area.
