SEAOC's 3,100 members are leaders in the practice of structural and earthquake engineering and key participants in the development, interpretation, and implementation of building standards and codes. Our organization has served as the professional society for Structural Engineering in California since 1932. We offer education to members, write and publish technical documents, shape state and local government policy, and encourage our members' professional development. We support the growth of a new generation of Structural Engineers to meet the technical, economic and social demands of the built environment in California and around the world.
SEAOC comprises four regional associations — Central California (SEAOCC), Northern California (SEAONC), Southern California (SEAOSC) and San Diego (SEAOSD)— each unique but all committed to serving members and to helping communities by promoting safer structures wherever people live or work.
Our Mission
In July 2021, the Structural Engineers Association of California completed a process to develop a Strategic Framework that defines the organizational purpose and priorities from which the Board of Directors develops objectives, activities, and timelines. The Strategic Framework provides the Vision, Mission, Values, and means by which SEAOC accomplishes its mission. This information and structure are utilized by the Board of Directors and SEAOC committees as part of a process to develop specific objectives, activities, and timelines. On an annual basis, the Board of Directors will review the Strategic Framework to identify 3 to 5 priority areas of activity and desired impact for the next defined period. The Board will provide direction to the Committees to consider the priority areas and to identify any additional priorities related to their specific activities and goals.
