Joint meeting with SEAoO

Topic: Case Study - Bridge Park Development

(Online registration and payment available, see bottom of page.)

Schaefer is providing structural engineering and parking consulting services for the first phase of this $300 million mixed-use development. Phase 1A consists of 370 apartment units, 140,000 sq ft of office space, 120,000 sq ft of retail and restaurants, and a 190-room hotel with conference center. Two six-story free-standing parking structures will park 900 vehicles in 291,000 sq ft each; a third similarly-sized garage is in the planning stages. The Schaefer team is developing the garages’ functional layouts including entrances and exits, circulation and parking stall layout. Construction materials for the project’s structures include post-tensioned concrete for the parking garages, structural steel for the free-standing office buildings, and one- and two-story post-tensioned concrete podiums supporting three- to five-story wood-framed residential buildings above. The presentation will cover project challenges that included roadways on the podiums, a sloping site with rock, multiple construction types and materials, and detailing for wood shrinkage, concrete movement, and brick support. Non-technical challenges included the project delivery method, zoning requirements, budget, and schedule.
