Renovation: 2010–2012[edit]
Memorial Stadium supporting columns diverging due to fault creep
Need for renovation
The Hayward Fault passes directly under the playing field of Memorial Stadium (nearly from goal post to goal post),[6] where right-lateral strike-slip motion is shifting the east half of the building to the south at a rate of 1.2 mm/yr. Expansion joints have been placed in the walls of the stadium to maintain the integrity of the building. A 1998 seismic safety study on the California campus gave the stadium a "poor" rating (meaning that the building represents an "appreciable life hazard" in an earthquake).
