There is no such thing as a blanket requirement based on the old zone maps.
Contact the structural engineer to find out what the Seismic Design Category is for the project. If it is "C" or above, then you need to provide bracing. Craig L.

Can someone with experience in the area tell me if Seismic bracing is required in Fredrick Maryland? (21701) According to the maps I found online at appears to be the same seismic category as central PA, but not having worked in the area before I wanted to be sure there wasn't some local requirement.
