PRESENTATION OUTLINE
Gravity System Redesign• Girder-Slab Composite Steel and Precast System
• Sufficiently designed for strength and serviceability requirements
• Reduced overall building weight
• Framing plan conformed easily to existing floor layout
• Maintained floor-to-ceiling height
Lateral Force Resisting System Redesign• Concentrically Braced Frames
• Lighter weight• Fast construction• Economical• Limit drift and displacement
Impact on Foundation• Reduced overturning moment•Reduced base shear •Reduce size of foundation
Architectural/Façade Breadth• Brick veneer system is most efficient
Construction Management Breadth• Reduced schedule•Minimal increase in cost
If a minimal cost increase and minor architectural layout changes were not a concern, the redesigned structural system could be implemented as an alternative design.
