SeismoStruct: Abandoned Site Assessment Tool
Summary
My company, SeismoStruct, is developing a seismic assessment tool to help engineers and site developers evaluate abandoned excavation sites with advanced soil-structure interaction analysis.
Problem statement
Customers struggle with accurately assessing the seismic safety risks of abandoned excavation sites which causes potential structural failures, safety hazards, and costly liability issues when developing or repurposing these locations.
Solution
SeismoStruct is a specialized assessment tool that evaluates the seismic stability and safety risks of abandoned excavation sites by analyzing how soil and structural remnants interact during earthquake events. The tool provides engineers and safety officials with comprehensive risk assessments and structural integrity reports for these potentially hazardous abandoned sites. This enables informed decision-making about site remediation, public safety measures, or future development planning.
Growth metric
The key metric to focus on is number of abandoned sites assessed per month. To scale this metric to affect 1 million people, the company should develop automated AI-powered assessment capabilities that can process satellite imagery and geological data to rapidly evaluate thousands of sites simultaneously, and establish partnerships with government agencies, insurance companies, and real estate developers who need large-scale site assessments for urban planning and development projects.
