Getting my butt kicked with the seismic requirements on a healthcare project. I have combed through the OSM details but I am unable to find an answer to a few basic questions. If anyone could help with these I would greatly appreciate it. Project is in Los Angeles at UCLA. I believe CEC is AHJ.

Do these seismic system require design by an engineer? Whenever we've installed them we've had a detailed drawing from an engineer.
