Salt Lake Temple Seismic Upgrade

The Salt Lake Temple underwent a major renovation and seismic upgrade, requiring crews to work on all levels and areas of the structure from the very tops of all the towers to 20+ feet below the original sandstone foundation to support a very robust and advanced base isolation system. Utilizing wire sawing, wall sawing, flat sawing, core drilling, and robotic demolition methods: Structural concrete, sandstone and 18,000 PSI granite material was carefully cut and removed from all areas of the Temple structure, while preserving the structural integrity of the historic building as well as the priceless works of art that adorn the ceilings and walls of this Iconic and sacred structure. This project is one of the largest and longest duration projects that A-Core has ever completed, marking a milestone in precision, scale, and expertise on the Historic Salt Lake Temple renovation and seismic upgrade.
