The Oakland Museum Of California is a reinforced concrete structure occupying four square blocks in downtown Oakland. Originally designed by Eero Saarinen and completed by Roche-Dinkeloo in the 1960s, the unique structure is an internationally significant complex built to house an overview of the rich history of the art, land, and people of California. In 1999, Jon Brody Structural Engineers performed a summary seismic review of the structure. This report, which included recommendations for retrofit measures, has been used as the basis for discussion and planning of future strengthening proposals.
