3. Utah State Capitol

4. History  Built in 1916  Designed by local architect Richard K. A. Kletting  Budget set at $2.5 million  The capitol was to be built of stone, with a concrete and steel superstructureconcretesuperstructure  Built before knowledge of earthquake dangers. Therefore did not meet seismic building codes

5. Wasatch Fault

6. 2004-2008 renovation and seismic upgrade  2 options: either rebuild the capitol from scratch (a cost of $1 billion) or rebuild the foundation so that it meets seismic building codes (cost of $260 million)  Installed 265 base isolators  Added new concrete walls to stiffen the building causing concentration of movement within the isolators

7. Base isolation system

8. Kennecott

10. Highlights  Largest private economic driver in Utah  Largest man made excavation on earth  Second largest copper producer in the United states  Since operations began it has produced more copper than any other mine (more than 19 million tons)

11. 4 step process  Mining->Concentrating->Smelting-> Refining

12. Products (annually)  300,000 tons of copper (worth about $1,806,000,000)  400,000 ounces of gold (worth about $528,200,000)  4 million ounces of silver (worth about $40,840,000)  30 million pounds of molybdenum (worth about $360,000,000)  1 million tons of sulfuric acid (worth about $250,000,000)
