Simpson Strong-Tie, as part of a collaborative reconstruction, seismic retrofitting, and historic restoration project team, has been awarded a 2019 Preservation Design Award for Restoration from the California Preservation Foundation for the restoration of the Napa County Courthouse, which was critically damaged by the South Napa earthquake on April 14, 2014.

C. Laney & Sons Construction, a Tennessee general contractor, has begun a historic effort to restore the Sevier County courthouse clock tower. Originally constructed in 1895, the existing tower requires complete removal and replacement due to its aging condition.
