This project is a 258,000 square feet (approx. total area), rectangular shaped, 6-story (w/ a Garden Level), 87’-0” tall building structure supported by concrete piles at the foundation. The superstructure consists of steel frames (225 Wide Flange columns & approx.2000 beams & girders) & a series of 12” thick concrete shear walls. The perimeter of the Garden Level is surrounded by concrete retaining walls. As a result, this project has approx. 400 pieces of assorted embeds plates and ledger angles that became a challenge on the detailing end, due to the sheer number and the complexity of several of these items. The perimeter walls of the building are composed of a combination of terracotta & aluminum composite wall panels, as well as CMU & exterior stone cladding system requiring the use of steel ledger angles & HSS cantilever posts with horizontal HSS beams for supports. The roof supports eight (8) large Air Handling Units (AHU) & two (2) Cooling Towers (CT), all of which are provided with a series of steel platforms & ladders for easy access. All these are situated inside two large terracotta-clad mechanical screen walls, that range from 10’-0 to 14’-0” in height supported by HSS posts & HSS beams. |
